Lockdown: Breaking Mum and Dad Losing their Identities

Welcome to Breaking Mum and Dad: The Podcast! In this new series of Breaking Mum and Dad we focus on parental mental health all with the backdrop of a pandemic. As we’ve all been kept at home at this time, we brought the podcast into Anna’s home to be joined by her husband Alex. This week Anna and Alex speak about the amazing reaction to last week's podcast, plus we're talking identity, or losing your identity when you become a parent: not loving being called 'mum', missing work, being flexible with your partner to accommodate your new lives as parents, paternity leave and the importance of communication to get through it all. Plus we review all of our previous homeworks and set some for the future.
