In this episode, we explore the phenomenon of 'mommy brain' - changes in memory and cognition that occur during pregnancy and early parenthood. Our special guest, Dr. Jodi Pawluski, a neuroscientist and author, explains the hormonal and physiological factors contributing to these changes, as well as the societal challenges in maternal mental health research. We delve into historical perspectives, current findings, and the impacts on both mothers and fathers. Dr. Pawluski reassures listeners that experiencing 'mommy brain' is a normal and adaptive part of parenting, highlighting the importance of support systems and individualised care.
