I sat down with my friend Amanda to talk about her postpartum experience. It includes an unexpected preterm delivery, NICU life, and her husband struggling with postnatal depression. Listen for the ways in which she finds her strength as a NICU mom, practices self-care, supports her husband, and finds the resources they need so he can thrive.
