Partners to Parents with Dr Jenna Brough

Having a baby is one of the most transformative moments in anyone's lives, and this can go on to have a huge impact on our relationships, especially romantic relationships!
In today's episode I am joined by Dr Jenna Brough, perinatal clinical psychologist, specialising in supporting people through the perinatal period.
We explore:

• Preparing for the impact that new parenthood might have on your relationship
• How the landscape in which we are parenting impacts our relationships
• Traditional gender roles
• How parenthood impacts intimacy
• Communication and how to improve it
• Love Languages
• Birth trauma and it's impact on relationships

NB: Some (not all) of this conversation focuses on a hetrosexual (Male & Female/ Dad & Mum) partnership, in order to explore some of the traditional gender roles and sexism that impact romantic heterosexual relationships. Of course not all families will be 2 parent or heterosexual, hopefully still lots here that anyone in a relationship with their child's other parent can take away!
