I am particularly proud of this episode. I hope it will bring a lot of value and support to struggling parents out there and normalize men talking about mental health with each other. Postpartum depression is a really important topic that affects more moms and dads than most people recognize, so I wanted to bring someone on the show to talk a little bit about mental health challenges that both parents can face in the weeks and months leading up to birth and after baby comes home. I found a fellow physician who is a psychiatrist in training who has experience preventing, diagnosing, and treating the whole spectrum of mental health disorders. And he is a dad, just like us.Peripartum mental health challenges can affect moms and dads and generally happen along a spectrum from so-called baby blues, worsening to peripartum depression and peripartum psychosis. Baby blues are very common, peripartum depression is estimated to affect 20% of moms and 10% of dads and can lead to loss of interest in things that once brought them joy. Peripartum psychosis is more specific to moms and is very rare, but very dangerous. This is an emergency to seek care for mom to keep her and baby safe.This can happen to anyone. The more we can be share those vulnerable moments with our partners or other trusted friends, the more we may be able to see that we are not alone. We also need to know when we should seek more professional help. That is, when we are a risk to ourselves or others, or thoughts that are interfering with your ability to function normally in your day to day life.

19. Grow Your Family without Losing Your Marriage

Saison 1 · Épisode 19

jeudi 24 mars 2022 • Durée 43:26

Welcome back Dads!! A few weeks ago, we discussed the struggle most couples face with staying connected to each other and maintaining good communication and friendship as you take on the challenge of parenthood. Then, I came across a couple that had the key to success and I had to bring them on the show. Dr. George Naum and his wife, Vanessa, have been coaching married couples for over 25 years. In 2018 they began specializing in physician marriage coaching.

Through the years, Vanessa and Jeep have seen the best and the worst of marriages in the context of medical practice, coaching, and among their personal relationships. They have been married for nearly 30 years. I believe that if you have a goal, one of the best ways to achieve it is to find someone else who is doing it and learn from them. So that’s what I did.

I know this conversation will help encourage you in those long days and nights after a new baby and help you develop habits that will help build lifelong intimacy.

I hope you learn as much as I did from this couple who have been married for a long time, survived raising three kids and having both partners trying to build careers and pursue passions. This can sometimes feel impossible, or at least, overwhelming, so it is always reassuring to see a couple doing this well and trying hard to keep doing it well.

Here are a couple key takeaways from my conversation with Jeep and Vanessa!

1. Some of the challenges associated with having kids can be eased by having conversations about having kids before you get married or start trying for a baby. How many do you want? What will you expect from each other after baby is born? What support can you provide to each other? These answers may change over time, but you need to have at least started having these conversations early on.
2. You and your partner may have times when your confidence is shaken because you are going through tough times or you get worried about parenthood, but you can be a voice of confidence for your partner that you can do it together and that you have faith in their ability to be a great parent.
3. Parenting is a team sport when done well. Parenting will go so much smoother if you work together, communicate effectively and help each other out. Affirm the positive and empathize with the negative.
4. Detach yourself from the idea that there are certain tasks that are “wife” issues or “husband” issues. You can’t put your nose up at changing a diaper or warming a bottle. 5. It’s never too late to reclaim your marriage. If you are feeling “Disenchantment” with your relationship. Investing time in emotional and intellectual intimacy gets forgotten. Communicate how you are feeling and your needs and wants. But take note of your partner’s wants and needs as well.

18. Maximizing Value from Primary Care Visits

Saison 1 · Épisode 18

jeudi 17 mars 2022 • Durée 35:41

Today, we talk about what to expect from your visits with the pediatrician in the first 6-8 weeks of your baby’s life. we talked back in episode 8 about how to go about choosing a pediatrician, so if you are still struggling with that decision, please go back and listen to that episode. You will typically have a visit at 3-5 days, 2 weeks, 1 month, 2 months, 4 months, and 6 months to get started. There are a few things you should expect to happen at each visit with your primary care pediatrician or other provider.

1. Your concerns: Bring a list of your concerns or questions about how your kid is doing. No matter if it seems silly or small. This is why we became pediatricians. To support you in your journey of parenthood. If we don’t address your concerns, you won’t hear anything else we say. So, let’s start with that.

2. Growth: This should include measuring weight, length, and head circumference. We will ask questions about nutrition, feeding frequency, physical activity, and how the child is doing when compared to birth weight and the growth curves. We want them to pick a line on the growth curve and stick with it.

3. Development: We will assess five domains of development – speech, fine motor, gross motor, problem solving, social/emotional. Usually with a formal assessment like the Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) or similar tool. Early Intervention service are available for kids who are not meeting their milestones

4. Full Physical Exam: This should include a full skin exam and looking for subtle signs of medical problems, specifically those that are related to your concerns.

5. Anticipatory Guidance: This is the teaching or coaching you get from your pediatrician to help you know what challenges are coming around the corner and new exciting skills your child will learn before the next well visit.

17. Talking With Kids When Scary Things Happen ft. Dr. Lia Gaggino

Saison 1 · Épisode 17

jeudi 10 mars 2022 • Durée 38:55

Welcome back dads!! This week we are continuing our detour from your regularly scheduled programming because there has been such chaos in the world and I know a lot of parents are struggling to figure out how to talk to their kids about what is going on and I wanted to try to help. So I reached out to a new friend of mine who is another podcasting pediatrician who had a great episode on this topic when those of us in Michigan were shaken by a school shooting in Oxford, MI that you may have seen on the national news. I’m very grateful to Dr. Lia Gaggino for making time last minute to get together to record with me so we can get this out to you as soon as possible and try to help in some small way.

Dr. Lia Gaggino (IG: @pediatricmeltdown, Twitter: @gagginol) is a primary care pediatrician practicing on the west side of Michigan for over 30 years. From 2015 to 2020, she served as the Kalamazoo-based Bronson Healthcare System medical director of behavioral health implementing Zero Suicide practices and building integrated behavioral health in primary care.

Dr. Gaggino is the founder of Medical Behavioral Health Solutions, LLC offering support to clinicians and systems and the host of the pediatric meltdown podcast featuring experts on children’s emotional well-being. She currently sits on the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) board of directors, partners closely with the Michigan chapter of the AAP and is a consultant to the University of Michigan MC3 Child Psychiatry Access Program.

Here are a couple key takeaways from my conversation with Dr. Gaggino.

We truly have to put our own oxygen mask on first. We need to find a balance between our need for new information and our ability to regulate our emotions. You will likely need some time with the tv off and the phones away to reconnect with loved ones to help you maintain your sanity.
For younger kids, you have a little more control over what they consume, so try to limit their exposure to some of the scarier images if you can. Their main priority is going to be their safety, so you may have to offer them more reassurance than you are used to, to help them understand that they are out of harm’s way or that you are going to be with them to help keep them safe.

These conversations are never easy, but your kids will probably have questions, so knowing where reliable sources of information are when it comes to child health, like from the American Academy of Pediatrics

16. A Case for Seasons: How to Get "Un-Stuck" in Tough Times

Saison 1 · Épisode 16

jeudi 3 mars 2022 • Durée 24:09

WELCOME BACK TO THE DOCS2DADS PODCAST. FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA HERE!!

ONE OF THE BEST WAYS TO GROW THE SHOW AND HELP MORE DADS DISCOVER OUR COMMUNITY IS TO LEAVE A FIVE STAR REVIEW FOR OUR PODCAST WHERE YOU CAN ASK A QUESTION THAT I CAN ANSWER ON THE SHOW LIKE THIS ONE:

HI DR. SCOTT, THE TODDLER YEARS CAN BE VERY NEGATIVE AND PARENTS CAN FIND THEMSELVES SAYING ‘NO’ LIKE 100 TIMES A DAY AND THAT IS WHERE I AM RIGHT NOW. HOW CAN I GET TO A PLACE WHERE I DON’T HAVE TO SAY NO SO OFTEN? IT SEEMS LIKE EVERY INTERACTION I HAVE WITH MY CHILD IS NEGATIVE.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THIS QUESTION. THIS IS A VERY COMMON CHALLENGE FOR PARENTS AND I WOULD SAY THAT THERE ARE THREE MAIN CATEGORIES OF ‘NO’S AND GETTING FAMILIAR WITH HOW OFTEN YOU USE EACH KIND CAN BE USEFUL. I CATEGORIZE THEM AS SAFETY NO’S PRACTICAL NO’S AND ANNOYED NO’S.

WORK TO CREATE OPPORTUNITIES FOR POSITIVE INTERACTIONS. SPENDING TIME TOGETHER BUILDING SOMETHING, WHERE THEY CAN’T DO IT “WRONG” AND THEY CAN BE CREATIVE AND EXPLORE.

IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION THAT YOU WANT ANSWERED ON THE SHOW, PLEASE REACH OUT VIA SOCIAL MEDIA OR SEND US AN EMAIL AT DOCS2DADSPOD@GMAIL.COM. WE’D LOVE TO HEAR YOUR QUESTION AND HELP OTHER DADS WHO ARE STRUGGLING WITH THE SAME ISSUES.

THERE’S SOMETHING THAT’S BEEN ON MY HEART LATELY THAT I HOPE WILL HELP SOME OF YOU WHO ARE GOING THROUGH A TOUGH SEASON.

PEOPLE IN THE MIDWEST TALK ABOUT THE SEASONS AS SOMETHING THEY LOVE ABOUT LIVING HERE. I DIDN'T REALLY UNDERSTAND THAT AFTER MOVING FROM PHOENIX WHERE WHAT WE LOVED WAS SUNSHINE!! BUT I HAVE DEVELOPED A SENSE OF WHY THEY LOVE SEASONS. NOT THAT EACH ONE IS GREAT, BUT THERE ARE TIMES WHEN LIFE IS TOUGH AND THIS HELPS YOU APPRECIATE THE GOOD TIMES MORE.

I KNOW A LOT OF MY FELLOW DADS ARE GOING THROUGH CHALLENGING TIMES RIGHT NOW AND I JUST WANT TO OFFER SOME ENCOURAGEMENT.
