Publisher's Summary

There is an epidemic that is going on. It is estimated that one out of every two mothers are affected by it. No one is talking about it, but a lot of women feel it. Intense fatigue, emotional fluctuations, memory issues, hormonal and other health complications, which for some, can be debilitating and even life-threatening. It's called postnatal depletion, being depleted after having a baby and can extend from the first days of birth to more than ten years later, possibly predisposing the mother to later health complications. There is a different reality after giving birth than what is presented to us. 

All women don't just snap back into shape after having a baby, and if they don't feel good, it's postpartum depression. In this groundbreaking book, Dr. Danett Bean (doctor of acupuncture and Asian medicine), preventive care, women's health specialist, and survivor of postnatal depletion uncovers the roots to this phenomena as a societal issue and offers practical solutions to preventing and ending this condition. 

If you are an expectant or new mother or father, plan to be one someday, or have parents that you care about in your life, you can't afford to not listen to this book. It comes with a postnatal care template, Dr. Danett's personal list of things that helped her to recover with a directory of resources, and a list of specific tips to help support mothers.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
