Today Dr. Dan interviews Babycenter’s Robin Hilmantel about Babycenter’s recent research around "No mom left behind: Addressing postpartum maternity care gaps” and related maternal health support (US).  Dr. Dan and Robin discuss several BabyCenter survey findings including:  *Moms are facing a support crisis in the months immediately following birth, according to the BabyCenter survey. At home, moms are too often left to piece together their own postpartum care while balancing that with the health and well-being of their newborn. *As a result of a baby-focused approach to postnatal care, more moms feel prepared to care for their newborn (65%) than they do to care for themselves (47%).  *First-time moms struggle with postpartum self-care: Only 38% feel properly prepared to take care of their own physical and emotional needs after giving birth. BabyCenter is the world's number one digital parenting resource reaching millions of new and expectant parents each month. The BabyCenter team conducts original research with a vision to create a world of healthy pregnancies, thriving children, and confident parents. Robin Hilmantel is the senior director of editorial strategy and growth at BabyCenter.

Dr. Dan and pediatrician (and mother of four) Dr. Shelly Vaziri Flais discuss the tools parents need to start the lifelong process of raising their boys into men who are mentally healthy, empathetic, and committed to gender equality. Dr. Flais explains concrete techniques for parents to push back against cultural stereotypes and toxic masculinity as they nurture their sons. Because “kids do as they see,” the work of being role models for gender equality starts in the home. This conversation-starter episode emphasizes the benefits of gender equality for boys and girls and men and women, and discusses it not only in the context of the family, but also the extended family, school, and greater community. The interview is inspired by Shelly’s book American Academy of Pediatrics’ Nurturing Boys to Be Better Men: Gender Equality Starts at Home.  Shelly Vaziri Flais, MD, FAAP, is a board-certified practicing pediatrician, mother of three sons and one daughter, and an assistant professor of clinical pediatrics at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine and Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago. She is the author of Raising Twins, editor-in-chief of Caring for your School-Age Child, and co-editor of The Big Book of Symptoms.
