OUTSTANDING AND WONDERFULLY HELPFUL,
By
This review is from: The Postpartum Husband: Practical Solutions for Living with Postpartum Depression (Paperback)
I recommend this book to all husbands, partners and family members of women suffering from postpartum depression. I am a clinician specializing in treatment of prenatal and postpartum mood disorders. This book is succinct and to the point. It is written in bullet points and brief paragraphs that give specific and clear information. Chapters include topics such as Understanding PPD, Misconceptions about depression, What she might be feeling and what you can do about it, What NOT to say, and more. Important sections cover topics such as coping, what you (the husband) might be feeling, medications, and recovery. It's amazing Kleiman could get so much information into this book. So often the husbands and families are confused about how to understand this problem and be helpful. Anyone who reads this book will feel supported.Pec Indman Ed.D., MFT author of Beyond the Blues, A Guide to Understanding and Treating Prenatal and Postpartum Depression

This review is from: The Postpartum Husband: Practical Solutions for Living with Postpartum Depression (Paperback)
Ordered several books on post partum depression. This book is absolutely a must have for anyone close to and concerned about someone with post partum depression. Easy to read, and understand. Adresses both what the wife and also the husband are feeling during this misunderstood illness. My daughter is in recovery from PPD now, and my husband insists that we order more copies to have on hand for other people we may come in contact with...
