Heart Mom veterans and dear friends, Helen Simpson and Anna Jaworski discuss a concern they have regarding the mental health needs of women whose babies have been identified with congenital heart defects and need surgery. As mothers of young adults with congenital heart defects, they talk about their own stories of diagnosis and treatment of their children's conditions and how it made them feel, how they dealt with their children's hospital stays and what they believe could help both mothers and children alike when they are in the hospital together. They also explore the kind of support that was available to them over twenty years ago versus the support that is available to heart families today and share their hard-earned advice with newly identified heart families.Links mentioned on this episode:Baby Hearts Press:  https://www.hug-podcastnetwork.com/shop-baby-hearts-press.html/Little Hearts Matter: https://www.lhm.org.uk/Please take a moment to follow us on your preferred social media platforms:iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/heart-to-heart-with-anna/id1132261435?mt=2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HearttoHeartwithAnna/YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGPKwIU5M_YOxvtWepFR5ZwInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/hugpodcastnetwork/If you enjoy this program and would like to be a Patron, please check out our Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/HeartToHeartIn this clip, Anna thanks listeners of "Heart to Heart with Anna" and asks them to keep the comments on the podcast episodes coming!Support the showAnna's Buzzsprout Affiliate LinkBaby Blue Sound CollectiveSocial Media Pages:Apple PodcastsFacebookInstagramMeWeTwitterYouTubeWebsite
