S2 EP 03 | NICU Trauma in the Time of COVID-19 with Parijat Deshpande
Excessive hand washing, fear of germs, social distancing and isolation... sound familiar? It may be because there are some uncanny similarities between the recent COVID-19 regulations and NICU regulations. And because of these similarities, we wanted to bring awareness to the fact that this can all be very triggering for NICU mamas.
We are so honored to have high risk pregnancy specialist and trauma professional Parijat Desphande on the podcast to share about how our bodies and minds may be responding during this unprecedented time. This episode is packed with incredible amounts of insight and immense amounts of HOPE.
Parijat Deshpande is the leading high-risk pregnancy specialist, trauma professional, speaker and author who teaches women how to deactivate their stress response before, during and after a high-risk pregnancy so they can give their baby a strong start to life.
