Le MOMMY BRAIN : le super-pouvoir des mères !

Vous avez parfois l’impression d’être à côté de vos pompes, que votre cerveau tourne au ralenti et que votre bébé est littéralement en train d’aspirer vos neurones ?

Rassurez-vous, vous n’êtes pas dingue ! Il se trame bien quelque chose en vous, et cette chose, c’est votre cerveau qui se refait une jeunesse complète et se concentre sur de nouvelles zones d’apprentissage, engendrant tout à la fois une croissance émotionnelle, pratique et sensible incroyable !

Dans cet ouvrage, Jodi Pawluski questionne avec force et finesse notre rapport à la maternité et explore de manière inédite l’univers chimique et fantastique du
cerveau des mères et plus largement des parents. En s’appuyant sur de nombreuses études scientifiques, y compris ses propres travaux, et de multiples cas cliniques, elle fournit des conseils concrets pour vous aider à accompagner au mieux votre cerveau durant cette transition et vous préparer à accueillir la vie.

It's Father's Day and what better time to learn about how the brain changes with fatherhood than today.

Check out podcast #29 of with Dr. Jim Rilling at Emory University.

He does some fascinating research on how a father's brain changes and how these changes are related to hormones and depend on experience parenting.

You can check out the podcast on , , and a number of other podcast providers.

Also - if you like what you hear let us know.

Parental Brain 2022 was a great success and St Malo was spectacular, as usual. 🤩

There is exciting parental brain research on the horizon. ❤️

NEW BLOG OUT ! I wrote about the exciting new research from Dr Jim Rilling’s group on how the brain changes with grand parenting.

“ I often think of my Grandma, my dad’s mom. I grew up in the same town as my grandparents in the Okanagan Valley of Western Canada, spent many Sunday dinners at their place, and learned much about my Ukrainian heritage (my grandparents were children of immigrants) from them. Grandma played a significant role in my life, not only for aspects related to my heritage, but also in terms of what it is to be a woman, partner, and mother — in the absence of social norms.

Recently I’ve been wondering how I may have impacted her…”

I don’t think I’ve shred this on this new Mommy Brain Revisited account so here it is!

I while ago I wrote this blog for on why we need to revisit how we talk about Mommy Brain / Mom Brain / Baby Brain - the memory loss and brain fog that comes with motherhood.

In brief, your brain does amazing things when you become a parent. For sure changes in memory exist – both positive and negative (which I’ll talk about more soon) - but we need to shift the narrative to include all the changes that take place in your brain when you have a child.

Check it out - Mom Brain Rebranded - at Inspire the Mind or on my website https://www.jodipawluski.com/print .

Let me know what you think!

Lab life! I’ve been missing it these days but here’s a taste of what we do when we study mom brains.

The Mommy Brain Revisited podcast episodes on how parenting affects your brain later in life.

This research shows that once a parent, always a parent - we can even see this in your 🧠.

This research also suggests that as you change and adapt to different parenting needs your parental brain likely changes too.

I think that’s pretty awesome.

Here's a lovely brain image of where childbirth affects your brain when you are in your 50s or so (and your kids were birthed years earlier).

It’s from the work of Dr. Ann-Marie de Lange. I talk with her on episode 27 of podcast (link in profile).

It's exciting research showing the impact of childbirth on brain aging.

Here you can see, in the image from one of her papers, brain regions showing the strongest association with number of previous childbirths.

These brain regions are important for emotional regulation, motivation, and learning - important factors for parenting.

To learn more check out the Mommy Brain Revisited Podcast #27 .

Have questions? Let me know. I always look forward to hearing from you.

For a brief summary on the science of the lasting effects of parenting on the brain Chaco out Mom Brain Forever over .

02/02/2022

Let’s talk for a moment.

Surprise, surprise - there are long lasting changes in the brain of moms and dads - even into their 70s!

These changes are, for the most part, positive - which means you won't have brain fog or forgetfulness forever - and at times are more pronounced in the mother (birthing parent).

Take home - parenting changes your brain and likely continues to change it as you parent.

I think this is pretty exciting, don’t you?

I have 3 episodes of Mommy Brain Revisited podcast on parenting and brain aging:

🧠Episode 11 with Dr Liisa Galea
🧠Episode 15 with Winnie Orchard (soon to be Dr)
🧠Episode 26 with Dr Ann-Marie De Lange

Check them out and let me know what you think!
