Postpartum Couples
Postpartum Mood Disorders:  The Couple’s Experience
Produced By:  Christina G. Hibbert, Psy.D. & Cynthia Lermond, Psy.D.


"One of the first videos that addresses the needs of
both the woman and her partner.  A significant resource
for families beginning parenthood."
 -Diana Lynn Barnes, Psy.D.
   The Center for Postpartum Health;  
Past President, Postpartum Support International

Postpartum Mood Disorders:  The Couple’s Experience (2002) describes the
emotional journey of postpartum mood disorders from the perspectives of both
the mother and the father.  The couples in this program candidly describe their
experiences, allowing the viewer a true glimpse into the reality of postpartum
mood disorders.  This is an excellent resource for medical or mental health
professionals and especially for couples before and after the birth of a baby.

"This is the single best video on the husband's experience of postpartum
depression.  The sensitively rendered interviews provide a powerful
education appropriate for professionals and families on the painful
childbirth transition that many couples endure in silence."
    -Carole Sheehan M.A., RNC, Carondelet St. Joseph’s Hospital  

“An excellent depiction of not only the mother’s experience, but the
impact on the family. One of the best videos for both parents and
professionals”.  
-Michelle Lacy, M.A., LPC, Trauma Specialist, Center for Hope
