Postpartum Anxiety, Feeding Struggles & “Hard Pants” with Jessie Wan
About this episode
Jessie Wan discusses her challenging postpartum experience, including anxiety and feeding struggles during the pandemic.
Jessie Wan shares her journey through pregnancy during the pandemic, a carefully planned birth, and an unexpectedly difficult postpartum period shaped by postpartum anxiety. She opens up about navigating breastfeeding when her baby developed a dairy and soy allergy that led to reflux, and how that impacted her early motherhood experience. We also talk candidly about treatment options, including Sertraline and Rexulti, and swap notes on what actually helps. Plus, Jessie introduces us to the concept of “hard pants”—and why they might be the last thing you want postpartum.
