One of my biggest gripes here.

The people who screen moms the most for mental health and postpartum mood disorders in your CHILD's pediatrician!

I find this messed up on so many levels! This professional is versed in caring for my child, not me. They aren't specific to adults, women and postpartum health.

You go to the pediatrician to ensure your child is healthy. This is the time to focus on your child not worry about my mental health.

This needs to change and change isn't coming tomorrow. So what can we do now?

We need to take responsibility for our mental health. Reach out when we need help and check in on other moms as well.
