Beyond the Baby Blues: Understanding and Managing Postpartum Rage

You love your baby. But sometimes, the rage scares you.

The flash of fury when the baby won't stop crying. The slammed door. The screamed words you didn't mean. The crushing guilt that follows. If you're a new mother experiencing postpartum rage, you may feel like you're the only one—and that something is deeply wrong with you.

Nothing is wrong with you.

Postpartum rage is real, common, and manageable. In this compassionate, science-informed guide, you'll discover what postpartum rage actually is, why it happens, and—most importantly—what you can do about it.

Inside, you'll learn:
