Thank you for doing an episode on this topic! I am currently in my battle with PPD and you made me feel like I’m not alone in my thoughts and feelings! The world needs more people like the two of you! Thank you!!

Loved this episode.I too suffered PPD with both my daughters (they are now 30 & 25) With my second daughter I was hospitalized in the psychiatric unit and put on antidepressants.I knew I needed help but I felt like I was in the wrong place for it.I wish I would have been with other women going through the same thing.After two weeks I started feeling happy again and went home.We would've liked to try for a boy but we had two beautiful healthy daughters and neither one of us wanted to go through PPD again.Keep your head up Shawn each day gets better! You have a beautiful family ❤

Thank you for your raw honest vulnerability, love you guys!! This episode was so emotional for me, it reminded me of those dark feelings and thoughts that come with depression, it feels like such a dark hole and digging yourself out and surviving then thriving is like reaching the mountain top that you never thought you’d reach!!

I wonder why tongue tie is not part of the agar testing they do after the birth! It would make things so much easier for parents & baby!

I'm so inspired by you two.

Bawling 😢

Is Shawn like a borderline short person? I always feel like she's giving her husband S*#! She's not that exciting herself always bitching

As a first time mom with a 3 week old, listening to this was really helpful. I definitely relate to your suggestion of trying to make time for simple pleasures like coffee and a hot shower, it goes a long way. Thank you guys for being so open and sharing, I can relate to how hard it can be to be vulnerable and asking for help. You guys are awesome, keeping doing you!

This will help so many families thank you

This is the best episode you’ve ever done! I love your goofy episodes, your celebrations and triumphs, and the information you often share, but in this episode you demonstrated wisdom and grace! I hope other couples will emulate your humility and perseverance in their own marriages as they go through the dark times. As a former pediatric nurse and the mother of a medically challenging child, I know how the dark times can pull couples apart! Thank you for being vulnerable and honest with us!

It impacts dads as well.

I couldn’t relate more to Shawn’s story. Thanks for sharing! No one really knows until they go through it!

I think it sets in around 2 weeks. Most babies sleep 12-18 hrs a day the first 2 weeks, and then come to life with a bang

Shaun, you seemed so uncomfortable through this. It's not a sign of weakness! And I don't think it means you're not past it if talking about it makes you cry. Crying doesn't mean you're still clinically depressed, but you're processing what a painful time it's been. I hope you both continue to feel better and better, and I hope you both know what a positive video you just put out. Your kids are so lucky to have you as are we your listeners.

So glad you did a podcast on this. It’s not talked about enough. I went through horrible postpartum with my second baby. It was horrible!!!! Luckily I got help and took care of it. This is something that needs a lot more awareness!!!!!

I honestly believe orgasms and sex during pregnancy and after help a lot with PPD and colicky babies. Also takes your prenatal vitamins!! Especially AFTER for 1+ years

You two make a beautiful team❣ So glad that Shawn is feeling a lot better.

Thank you for sharing bawling my eyes out rn my heart goes out to you guys ❤

😭😭😭😭😭 the love in your eyes for each other is palpable

Even through your own pain and struggle. Never apologize for crying or working through things with your spouse. The fact that you could be yourself on this podcast that needs to be talked about more. It just shows how you both have had to learn to communicate with each other even with therapy help through difficult times and it’s perfectly ok to do so. The fact that you do whatever is necessary for your own mental states and your family is what it’s about and sharing this with the world is what we need and others need. I commend you both so very much for this. I also will keep you both and your families in my prayers because that’s what we do when our friends and families need support. I consider you friends even though you don’t know me. If anything we are all family through our father God. Much love and sending big hugs. 🙏🙏🤗🤗🥰🥰

Glad you talked about it, i went through it with mt first for over 8 months. The following two were not as bad. It feels like the world is ending by guilt alone.

Thank you for making me feel seen and heard because I am still going through it but I think its getting better myself and my little is almost 7 months

You guys are the most motivating couple for other couples. Your experience would/will help other couples going through the same situation as you guys.

You touched on SUCH AN IMPORTANT POINT: Depression (prenatal, postpartum, or otherwise) is not a choice, it is not from a lack of gratitude, or lack of resources. You didn’t choose to be depressed. Its not because you weren’t prepared enough. It’s not your fault. Period. Depression is biological, chemical (hormonal), and very much out of our hands. We can try to be preventative but it doesn’t mean it won’t* happen. The thing that stood out for me when I had prenatal (and post) depression and had suicidal ideation was that every doctor and nurse who I told asked me, “was this pregnancy planned?” This just reinforces this idea that depression is from a “lack” of planning, or being prepared, and that we* (mothers) didn’t do something to prevent it. We need to change the narrative. We should be hearing: “you’re suffering and it’s not your fault. I can help you and you will get through this” from our caregivers. Not a question that implies that you accidentally got pregnant so that’s why you’re sad. Thank you Shaun for being so vulnerable and sharing your story! ❤ you’re impacting so many lives. Suicide is the leading cause of maternal death during the perinatal phase of life. (Pregnancy and a year after birth). So many women and their children and families could be saved from so much heart ache and pain just by having more information and destigmatizing mental health. Thank you Andrew for your vulnerability as well. So many partners/fathers are impacted so greatly in this time as well and don’t address it. Your love for your wife is so apparent, you’re a wonderful husband and dad. You made it ❤

What a beautiful, honest, vulnerable p, and deeply personal description of your experience with ppd. I also suffered from this with my third, while raising my two other very young children, and going through a painful divorce. God is so good though and He was with me through it all. God bless you both.

Very touching, your so strong Shawn. Give yourself another medal, you deserve it. So important to talk about it. Good job momma❤

Thank you for being willing to be SO vulnerable with us. I learned so much from watching this and my youngest "baby" is 20 years old. I just kept seeing you on the trampoline, covered in snow and doing flips and it meant so much more....especially after hearing your experiences today. This is something I will share with my kids when they enter this season of life. Again, thx for sharing. ~ Heather Aston (aka Mama🐻 Aston)

Thank you for sharing your story. Dont ever feel quilt for having ppd. It's so hard having a colic baby. My son was colic and under weight. He was born early was in the NICU for about 4 weeks and my milk ever came in due to the stress. I thought maybe if i didn't through my pregnancy would have given him more time. Rich or poor everyone has experiences and feelings. Your amazing and did the best you could.

I had the baby blues with my first baby when I was 23 years old. With my 2nd and 3rd babies, I had no issues. Now, with my 4th pregnancy and baby at 45 years old, my body was so out of whack. I faced post partum psychosis and was wrongly diagnosed with bipolar disorder, then they changed it to adjustment disorder and now I know it was post partum psychosis. It lasted literally 9 months. I was hospitalized twice for my mental lapse. But I think in my case it's a mix of premenopause symptoms. I'm just learning about the phases of it all and the more knowledgeable I become, the more things make sense as I'm coming to know myself better. Women's health needs to be talked about more than ever before. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. 😘

Going through it right now

Thank you for doing a podcast on postpartum depression!! It was not talked about when I had my daughters almost 20 years ago. I couldn’t clean, (which is strange because I have OCD really bad), I couldn’t cook, I just wanted to be left alone in a dark house with the blinds shut, and suicide idealization!! I was told that I was a bad wife, that I was disgusting because I couldn’t bring myself to clean, and worthless!! NO ONE talked about postpartum depression.(I’m remarried now, thank God!) I didn’t realize that I had it until RUclips channels started talking about it. Keep spreading awareness🤗

Love this and the fact its being talked about more! I struggled with PPD for around 5 months with being a 1st time mom, baby with Colic for 5 months and never really expierenced anxiety or depression before hand!

This was perfect to capture the moment

I'm opposite I don't wanna know their past and dirty laundry ..i want to be happy and live in the.moment

I'm so glad I found you guys. I'm having my first kid in December and we want 4 total, but I think I'll listen to you guys on repeat through post-partum and with each kid. :)

Who knew Mel Robbins was her wingman

Shawn, both you and Simone are showing your naïveté about the human condition. People who don’t have a good sense of self, will always find ways to try and tear people down on social media, and in life. Simone should have never responded by telling trolls on the internet to “eff off.” She lowered herself to their level. Shawn’s husband advice of not responding to trolls on Social, are so appropriate. One never gives negative comments any chance of blowing up. Simply ignore the trolls. They will simply have no life.

Great guests. Abby is right, Glennon can communicate in a way that can really reach people. What a blessing you are as a team.

What about the kiss? 😂😂 you guys are so cute.

49:16 knowing that Jess was pregnant but they hadn’t announced just made this so cute when they look at each other 😊

omg i feel your pain with your newborn. my first had the same issue. we had surgery plus several weeks of therapy to teach him how to drink. I remember the long nights alone (my husband worked night shift too) and trying everything to get him to eat. those were some dark times. our lactation specialist recommended trying multiple brands of bottles. the Mam brand was the easiest one for him to drink out of.

12/12/24 is my due date! 12/2 is my Grandfather's birthday. He's a big reason I'm a Christian today. :) I'm hoping my baby is born that day, but that might be a little early.

Andrew reminds me of Tom Brady

i grew up with pretty solid up bringing mom and dad and my god parents always around and family dinner on Sunday nights during football season And holiday, birthday's together i want a man had that as well. My father was work a lot to put a roof over my mother and my brother heads. It just was. My mom and aunt hung with us kids going to zoo or vacation to see their sister in Maine or go grandpa willmas farm I have a disability so i can't do anything I'm stuck. At home i have amazing sister and brother and i need a man like my father and my god father

Thank you for this, ladies. There was a lot of nuggets to hold onto. I am glad I found your channel

That's exactly what my hubby said! He sees the real you, and that's beautiful

Matt Howard would never 😂
