their local headlines. Check out Liv MacKenzie's work in the Colorado

The Postpartum Stress Center Our favorite quote at the PPSC handed out on cards for Moms to hold close:
“Finish
each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some
blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you
can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too
high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.” Ralph Waldo Emerson

The Postpartum Stress Center
Women and Infants Day Program in Providence Rhode Island is such a wonderful option for women suffering from severe postpartum depression. It
was founded by an equally wonderful Margaret Howard,PhD who continues
to work tirelessly to support the program and the women who are
fortunate enough to find solace there. I just w...anted to give a shout
out on behalf of Margaret and all her hard work.I feel both
regret and relief when I call Margaret about patients that I'm working
with who need her help. I'm so sorry we don't have a facililty like
this in the Philly area, but I am so thrilled to know there is an
option for women who are able to make the trip.
