By Dr. Jillian Satin
My name is Dr. Jillian Satin and I’m a registered clinical psychologist who focuses on mental health in pregnancy and the postpartum period. I have two kids under 6 and I work with exhausted parents every day.
I definitely get it!
I’m going to discuss the impact of sleep deprivation on parents, followed by my tips for coping better when you’re an exhausted parent, and then I’ll share my best strategies to manage your own sleep difficulties.
Every parent knows that sleep disruption is part of welcoming a new baby into the family.
