The postpartum period should be one where parents bond with their new addition, where everything is rosy and the future looks bright. Sadly, for many couples this is not the case. Today Belinda Reynolds, a Dietician and mother of two, takes us through the pressures and issues facing new parents and how we differentiate normal baby blues from a deeper, more debilitating postpartum depression. Belinda discusses the nutritional deficiencies that need to be addressed as well as the evidence for dietary and lifestyle interventions that can both treat and prevent pathological mood issues.  *****DISCLAIMER: The information provided on FX Medicine is for educational and informational purposes only.
