For this episode we're discussing the heartbreaking case of Andrea Yates. She was a young mother who drowned her five children during an episode of postpartum psychosis. Nicole does an amazing job educating us on the nuance of this case and how tough postpartum can be for mothers. This topic was very enlightening especially as the three of us do not have kids and we hope that you also learn something new. Listen with care and be sure to check on your mom friends, they need more support than you think.
