How Does Birth Trauma Burden Mothers? A Clinical Psychology Podcast Episode.

THE PSYCHOLOGY WORLD PODCAST

For the vast majority of people, giving birth is a beautiful, wonderful and amazing experience that means they get to bring new life into the world. Yet for a lot of women, giving birth can be a very traumatic, hard and awful time in their life because childbirth can be overwhelming. As well as mothers can find it overwhelming to immediately transition from childbirth to the early stages of becoming a mother, meaning there is no time for the new mother to recover physically and emotionally after childbirth. Also, whilst women are told it should take about 6 weeks for their recovery to happen, in reality, there is no recovery time because of the new responsibilities and demands of being a new parent. This is often forgotten about by the majority of people (myself included). Therefore, in this clinical psychology podcast episode, we explore why can childbirth be potentially traumatic for women, and how does birth trauma burden a mother. If you enjoy learning about mental health, clinical psychology and trauma then this is a fascinating episode for you.

In the psychology news section, you'll learn is it better to prevent or fix mistakes in the criminal justice system, how immune changes could be a marker of depression (including my rant), and should psychologists rely on hypothesis generation by artificial intelligence?
