Mothers go through all kinds of changes during pregnancy and after the birth of their child, in terms of hormones and broader psychological changes. But what about fathers? Do their brains change? When and how? Can we compare biological factors with sociological and anthropological ones? Darby Saxbe is a USC psychologist who wrote a book on this very topic. Let's chat with her and learn all about it!
