When Postpartum Packs a Punch offers solace to mothers who have faced traumatic birth and perinatal mood disorders. Within the book is a chorus of different voices--parents, experts, and researchers--singing the same song: while the U.S. has made strides in caring for new mothers, we still have far to go. Stigma silences women, and blinds those on the sidelines. Stories of others' struggles are an antidote for stigma, because they let mothers know that they're not alone.
Kristina Cowan describes her own experience with traumatic birth and postpartum depression, and weaves it together with accounts from other parents. Representing diverse backgrounds and perspectives and underscoring the prevalence of mood disorders after childbirth, these narratives serve as a balm. They help heal and stir hope. And they show how an overcoming spirit can fight terrors of the mind--and win.
