Episode 7: Processing Your Birth Story with Dr. Alyssa Berlin, Perinatal Psychologist.

In this episode, we chat with Dr. Berlin, a perinatal psychologist, on how we can begin to approach processing our birth story if it was not the positive experience we had been preparing for.

In this episode:

  • How we do begin to process our birth story
  • Dual emotions can coexist: you can absolutely love your baby and also grieve your birth experience
  • How each member of the team may have had a different experience and perspective
  • How healthcare providers and birth team members could improve communication and clarity during emergency situations
  • When to seek professional support
  • Preparing for a subsequent pregnancy and birth after birth trauma
