This is what postpartum depression can look like.

On a rare date night with my husband; family days around the city; a weekend at the lake with my best friends and our families; family day nature hikes.

These were some of the absolute darkest, most confusing and overwhelming days of my life. And most people never would have known that I was struggling.

There are so many incredible advocates supporting families and fighting for perinatal mental health awareness and resources. We’ll tag some in the comments - please add your suggestions here too.

“I’m holding my newborn and I can’t even enjoy it.” Words from a new mom, sharing with us her experience of having to spend hours on the phone after her baby was born to access the benefits that should have been available to her so she could focus on her baby & her recovery.

We heard over and over from new & expecting parents today who said that thinking about their employment leave and benefits was scary and overwhelming.

But it doesn’t have to be that way. We were able to share some information, direct people to our free resources and virtual guide, and lighten some of that stress for them today.

Another incredible Oh Baby Expo in the books!

We can’t say it enough:

📣 Make sure you understand your employment leave benefits - and please don’t trust that a third party benefits administrator knows them better than you do!

If you’re eligible for the Massachusetts Paid Family and Medical Leave (MA PFML) program, the leave benefits available to you for childbirth recovery may be different (and potentially more generous) than the benefits available to you under a short term disability insurance policy (or employer policy, etc).

We are hearing from so many people who are about to go on leave - or already on leave - and are being given incomplete or incorrect information about the benefits available to them under MA PFML.

At a time when new parents should be focused on their medical recovery, their newborn, and their family, they are instead spending hours arguing with benefits administrators just to get the benefits that they have already paid into and should be readily available to them.

We have links in bio to our free one-page summary and our paid virtual guide on MA PFML for New & Expecting Parents.

A little planning can go a long way!

In times of national crisis, it’s more important than ever to join together. While we all may feel helpless at times, we believe that each one of us has the ability to make an impact (even if it doesn’t always feel that way).

If you want to be more involved in doing something in response to current events, but feel stuck or overwhelmed, join us for Action Hours - a free weekly virtual meetup to take action together.

• Weekly 30 minute meetup
• Join and drop off the call anytime
• Come ready to share or just listen in
• The idea is to make space to take a step toward advocacy together (make that call to Congress, send a thank you note to front line volunteers, share resources, learn from one another)

Next Date: Wednesday, February 11th from 10:30-11 am.

To receive the link, register on our website www.scullyandoleary.com.
