Even before your babies enter the outside world, you are already thinking and preparing and planning. You may feel like you’ve been planning since before they were conceived or you may feel totally unprepared. And everything may be different when they arrive. Becoming a parent through pregnancy and childbirth is obviously a huge physical change — it’s also a huge psychological change regardless of how you do it. Postpartum depression and anxiety are very common - in both moms and dads, and a lot of these strong feelings start to surface during pregnancy. If you’re worried that these feelings are interfering with how you’re coping, therapy may be able to help.
