E53: Planning for Pregnancy: Caring for your Mental Health First, with Dr. Kenga Sivarajah Delivered: finding victory after Postpartum Depression

In this special episode of Delivered, we are joined by a very experienced physician, Dr. Kenga Sivarajah. Dr. Kenga Sivarajah is well versed in the antepartum and postpartum spaces, working throughout London, UK.  Join us as we sit down and discuss how preparing for pregnancy is about so much more than prenatal vitamins and doctor's appointments.  It's also about caring for your emotional well-being. In this episode, we explore why your mental health deserves a place at the center of your pregnancy planning journey. Whether you're dreaming about starting a family soon or simply thinking ahead, we'll discuss how stress, anxiety, past experiences, relationships, and self-care can all impact the transition into parenthood. You'll learn practical ways to build emotional resilience, identify areas where you may need support, and create a strong foundation before pregnancy begins. Join us for an honest conversation about breaking the stigma around mental health, prioritizing yourself without guilt, and embracing the idea that one of the greatest gifts you can give your future child is a healthy, supported, and emotionally well parent.  Because caring for your baby starts with caring for you!
