Postpartum Anxiety After Having a Second Child: Why it was so Hard to Recognize the Second Time with Tori Levine

2/4/2021

0 Comments

 
After having my second child  I didn’t recognize my postpartum anxiety because it was completely different than the worries I had with my first. I even remember telling my general practitioner that my anxiety was way less than the first time (boy was I wrong)!
I didn’t realize or acknowledge that postpartum anxiety could be manifesting itself in feelings of failure, lack of feeling connected to the baby, feelings of anger and rage, and feeling like my family would be better off without me because I was just adding to the people my husband had to take care of.

Coping with Anxiety when Your Child is Diagnosed with a Chronic Illness with Tori Levine

2/2/2021

0 Comments

 
Despite what I had been told during previous calls and visits to his pediatricians' office, blood and clots in a 2-year-old’s stool is not just toddler constipation and NOT normal. Listen as I share the story of how my then-two-year-old was diagnosed with Very Early Onset Inflammatory Bowel Disease. I’ll share how helpful trusting your mother’s intuition or ‘gut’ can be, how isolated and jealous I felt of moms with “normal” healthy kids, and how chatting with a mom in the gymnastics waiting room lifted a huge weight off my back.
You’ll hear more about:
  •  Timeline for the beginning of the diagnosis process for Very Early Onset Inflammatory Bowel Disease
  • CT Scan, Labs, and Stool Samples, and EGDs
  • Could it be Celiac’s Disease, Meckel’s Diverticulitis, or something else?
  • Similarities between new motherhood and my experience mothering a child with a chronic illness
  • Feelings of Gratitude, Fear, Guilt, Anger, Jealousy, Questioning, Sadness, Grief, Anxiety
  • Why movement is so central to the Momxiety Club no matter if your baby is brand new or was brand new a decade ago.

First Time Mom Anxiety with Tori Levine

1/21/2021

0 Comments

 
I was “first time mom anxious” after my first was born. The first few weeks I would burst into tears randomly, especially anytime I would think about being left alone with Reuben.  We had an extremely difficult time with breastfeeding, I felt like a FAILURE, and felt like there was no way I would be able to feed him alone. Miraculously after tongue and lip tie revisions, multiple lactations consultant visits, nipple shields, syringe feeding, bottle feeding, breastmilk and spit up everywhere, pumping, use of a SNS feeder and what seemed like we needed 8 hands to do - Reuben latched on his own at 3 weeks old and I felt empowered but still needed support...

Meet Rabbi Ariana Capptauber who within the span of a few months, became ordained, moved to a new state, started a new job, and gave birth to her first child. Hear how mindfulness, meditation, spirituality, accepting things as they are, and forgiveness have helped her during this momentous time of her life. 
Her Rosh Hashanah sermon about forgiveness is what prompted me to ask her to be a guest. And I thought there was no better time than the end of the year, when many reflect on the past year and make plans and resolutions for the New Year, to share this interview.

Taming anxiety using realistic self-care: Ideas to calm momxiety submitted by moms for moms

12/10/2020

0 Comments

 
here is SOOOOOOOOOO much going on right now to make momxiety go through the roof! Today I’m sharing some of my own, as well as other mom’s ideas, for self-care that can be done during a pandemic.
We have all had our schedules thrown off since March and when we feel like we start getting into a routine, that routine gets shifted, by work/lack of work, in-person/virtual/hybrid/canceled school, and where and how often we can leave our house.
