Description

This week's replay is Dr. Fareeha Malik, DDS, mom of 2 with a history of severe postpartum depression. PPD ended up informing her relationships and and even her reproduction. Of course, we discuss how she she found healing. Bringing home a baby doesn’t always mean mom’s eternal happiness. Not all mothers feel “the way they should” after the baby is born, and may feel lost if they don’t know where to turn for resources. This endangers not only mom but also a newborn.In a time when 14000 children have been unalived in a completely manmade g-cide, this episode still has its place as one of the struggles mothers face. And for those of our momsisters delivering via C-section without anesthesia, delivering prematurely due to stress, shock, and manmade famine, PPD is a real threat with deep seated claws. May Allah SWT first and foremost secure the survival of our momsisters and their newborns born in an ongoing g-cide, and protect them from every evil of the heart and mind, and destroy the enemies who threaten their physical states. Ameen. We were so into the conversation that we didn't get to review the valuable resources we have for our community. check out the shownotes on our website or DM us.Links:1.

Mommying While Muslim is a one of a kind podcast where two American born and bred Muslim moms share their experiences to raise second generation kids. Having experienced both pre and post 9/11 America, they're acutely aware of the unique challenges their families face on top of the regular messes that all moms share. Mommying While Muslim is a space to take back their stories, and tell those no one will air on the news or portray fully or fairly in the media.Zaiba Hasan and Uzma Jafri are moms first, careerwomen second, and global citizens at heart. They meet taboo topics head on because they weren't allowed to do it growing up, not at home or at school and work. They aim to better their immediate households, communities, and their momsisterhood the world over by telling the truths sometimes people don't want to face or to hear. Not everyone has the privileges they have, and they are eager to learn more than they are to share their own experiences. Always looking to give back, they find women and families who need a mic because no one needs a voice; they just need an opportunity to speak. Besides tough social issues, they also tackle political ones because when laws affect their kids, they're coming for them as well as the ones who make them! There's no lane that doesn't get taken here.Along the way, they recruit momallies for Muslim Americans who have been inordinately targeted for the last 20 years. True moms know that ALL our children deserve to be safe, loved, and happy, and we bust every yellow brick on the Islamaphobic road to make sure they all are. If you like good trouble, this one's for you!
