In this episode, I sit down with my good friend and mother-in-law, Chelle, to talk about her experience with postpartum depression after the birth of her daughter. Chelle talks about how she dealt with the grief of losing her daughter and how she was able to come to terms with the fact that she was a terrible mother.

00:00:00.000 just accepted that she was a terrible mother you grieve not being this was at that time
00:00:07.840 you grieve not being the mother you thought you'd be and i wanted to ask you how do you hold that
00:00:13.760 grief without letting it define the mother you are today the grief has definitely gotten the best of
00:00:21.040 me many times many many many times um but it's transformed from grief it was grief in the
00:00:30.080 beginning um but because of the relationship that i do have with with her and how things ultimately
00:00:38.880 uh played out i'm incredibly grateful to to her she has an incredible father an incredible family
00:00:48.720 Um, and I, I no long, I, I don't feel it, even though it's not what I wanted to
00:00:57.220 happen and it's not what I hoped motherhood was gonna be or what it would look
00:01:04.960 like, I'm so lucky to that.
00:01:08.660 It turned out the way it did and that she is, um, safe and, and yeah, I think it
00:01:15.520 was around the same time.
00:01:16.500 negative way so because I know also you talk about how like when you finally did talk about it
00:01:22.420 explain to me the uh the complexity of and I asked this from the perspective of having so many
00:01:28.720 friends who've gone through postpartum depression the idea that anybody would think that I would
00:01:36.060 just give away my child and be okay with it is heartbreaking couldn't be further from the truth

00:02:04.400 misconception is that I have been in the past forced into treatment when in fact I have been the
00:02:12.460 one who has sought it out who who was saying I desperately need help I don't I you know I know
00:02:22.440 this is gonna look terrible but I am I am I cannot live like this anymore I have an incredible
00:02:29.260 relationship with her i go i travel as much as as i can i see her i do spend a lot of time on
00:02:36.680 facetime with her um but we talk about really deep things so we have a really intense incredible
00:02:45.280 um bond and i'm very grateful for that and i i know that she knows that she has two parents who
00:02:56.120 do anything in the world to make sure that she is happy and healthy mentally emotionally physically
00:03:03.560 spiritually um and she in no way feels abandoned okay so doug mpa he calls me um and i think this 0.81
