Welcome to the Roots Perinatal Resource Guide. We hope the experience of growing your family is accompanied by grace and ease. However, we want you to know that it is common for this process to also bring unforeseen challenges such as: infertility, loss, anger, anxiety, depression and other unrealistic expectations about bodies, identities, relationships and careers – all of which are compounded by sleep deprivation and the stigma of asking for help. We want you to know you are not alone. Support is not a luxury, but rather a necessary part of growing a family. The information found in this guide represents the many ways in which you can be supported on your journey from pregnancy to parenthood.

Making the transition from pregnancy to parenthood is a time of great transformation for everyone Please know that during the first few weeks after birth (postpartum), up to 80% of new mothers will experience symptoms such as feeling let down, crying for no reason, irritability, anxiety, impatience and restlessness. We call this period the Baby Blues. It is relatively shortlived, yet it can be a very intense period for new parents. There is no shame in admitting things are hard for you — you have never done this before. It's all new. Be gentle on yourself and let someone know you how are feeling.

Up to 1 in 4 parents w ill experience depression during pregnancy or af ter birth

Confusion Loss of appetite

Difficulty focusing

Trouble falling or staying asleep or sleeping too much

Excessive worry

Sadness Anxiety

Mental fog

Easily irritated or Angry When a parent suffers from depression, the whole family suffers. It’s critical that new and expecting families be informed.
