S2 EP 01 | Let's Talk About NICU Postpartum Pt 1

We all know that our bodies change after we have a baby. But what happens to our minds? For the month of February we focused on all things NICU Postpartum and how we can learn to love and embrace our bodies. We asked Natalie Reiter with Prairieland Counseling to share her wisdom regarding NICU postpartum, the changes that our minds undergo when they experience trauma, and how we can heal and grow post NICU.

Part 1 focuses on the "science" of trauma and what is really going on in our minds and in our bodies. Hint - there's a LOT!
