Shining a light on Postpartum Moods with Cheyenne Burnett - Episode 38
Description
As someone who is a huge fan of holistic health and a trained doula, I knew this was an important (and informative!) conversation to have. I love how the founder of MYMOOD® Vitamins, Cheyenne Burnett, breaks down postpartum moods and gives us a natural solution!
Cheyenne Burnett is an entrepreneur, author, educator, and most importantly, a wife and mother. As a new mom, more than once she felt totally blindsided by the entire postpartum period. She knew life after having her son would be different, but it was really hard for her, as a first-time mom, to wrap her head around just HOW different.
She thought, “This is an amazing, joyous time in my life, how could I possibly be THAT overwhelmed by all the changes that come with it?” But the reality is no conversation she had prepared her for the sleep deprivation, the feeding struggles, the baby blues, wildly intrusive thoughts, or the postpartum anxiety and depression… not even conversations with her doctor.
It only took a few days after delivery for her to experience a shift in her mood so severe that it felt like all the joy in the world spilled out of her and when she called her doctor things only got worse because the only solutions she was offered was to meet with a therapist (when they could fit her in) and discuss antidepressants. Since she'd had a bad experience with antidepressants in the past, she really didn't want to go that route this time. Instead, she reached back out to her Nurse and Midwife and began really digging into all-natural solutions.
After a long year of serious pushing (pun intended), testing and retesting over 30 different vitamins, minerals, and herbs, MYMOOD® Vitamins was born! The first EVER all-natural supplement, specifically designed to help alleviate the symptoms of postpartum depression such as mood swings, irritability, intrusive thoughts, sleeplessness, high anxiety, and more.
Now she has dedicated her life to helping moms just like you who are experiencing the same symptoms she did, take back control of their mood and actually enjoy the postpartum phase without the use of medication.
We talk about:
• What led her to start an all-natural postpartum supplement company
• What some symptoms of postpartum depression (and other postpartum mood disorders) we should be aware of
• How are MYMOOD® Vitamins different and why we need them
• Where we can find MYMOOD® Vitamins
