Emotions undulate ALOT as a new parent - but when does a “normal” fluctuation of emotions tip into unhealthy territory? PND (postnatal depression) is commonly talked about, but we don’t share or hear alot  on post partum anger - perhaps for the shame and guilt associated with it. Here we talk with counsellor and new parent specialist Jo White, and bring light to this too often swept-under-the-rug symptom of overwhelm in the first year(s) of your babie’s life. Jo is Qualified social worker & Clinical advisor for PANDA (Perinatal Anxiety & Depression Australia), 10+ years experience supporting women throughout pregnancies & postnatal period, and working in all areas of a specialist maternity hospital following an evidence based approach. 
Resources mentioned - PANDA and COPE
