In this heartfelt episode of our miniseries, The Baby Basics: What No one Tells You,  I step away from my paediatric physiotherapy role and speak as a mum. I open up about my personal experience with pre- and postnatal anxiety and depression. I talk about the moments I never expected, the feelings no one warned me about, and the quiet struggles behind the newborn photos. This is an honest conversation inspired by my own journey as well as the many mothers I have worked with who's worries for their baby has negatively impacted on those early days of becoming a parent.

I’ll also be sharing some gentle, practical tips that helped me navigate those tougher days. If you’re expecting,  a new parent, or supporting someone who is, I hope this episode reminds you that you’re not alone and gives you some helpful advice.

With love to you and your baby,

Lisa
