"How will postpartum depression impact my child's development?"

On this episode of Monday Mornings with Dr. Mona, a mother of a 1 year old calls in to ask bout the impact her postpartum depression can have on the development of her child.  I discuss why maternal (and parental mental) health matters and what we see for the developmental impact for kids.
