Changes in mood pre- and post-pregnancy is extremely common. In this episode of Listen Yourself Well Plunket Nurse, Joy Pringle, joins us to talk about one of the most common complications in childbirth – postnatal depression.

We discuss whether we talk enough about postnatal depression in New Zealand, and whether mums – and their whanau – really understand how common it is, and what it is. Joy shares her professional experience of what postnatal depression looks like, and how you can access help if you see the warning signs in yourself, or others.
