Navigating the Postpartum Period for Parents Living with HIV: A Girl Like Me LIVE

Submitted on Sep 25, 2025

Bringing a new baby home can be a beautiful time – and an overwhelming one. The postpartum period often leaves women feeling unsupported and uncared for as they adjust to massive changes in their lives, relationships, and bodies. The "baby blues" and other intense feelings can be particularly impactful for women living with HIV, as remaining in care and on their treatment routine is vital for their own and their babies' health.

Check out this episode of A Girl Like Me LIVE, held on September 25, 2025, as cohosts and mothers Ciarra "Ci Ci" Covin and Ashley Cason dive into a discussion about the challenges many parents face during the postpartum period, explore valuable resources, and discuss practical strategies to navigate this unique journey.

Whether you're a caregiver, mother, or simply want to support one as she experiences the postpartum period, this conversation is for you!
