Next week’s new regulations are different to the first lockdown, including allowing playgrounds to stay open and enabling support groups to continue.

[Maternal Mental Health Alliance @MMHAlliance]

Despite lockdown measures easing, there's still a great deal of uncertainty for many pregnant women and new parents.

The frustration with the Cumberlege Review is that it tells us what we have known for years. Women with severe health problems are dismissed and belittled. As a birth charity, we hear these stories all the time. What will it take for this to change?

[Susan Ayers @DrSusanAyers]

Its so important to talk about #birthtrauma. I hope we can connect people all over the world to raise awareness and prevent it happening

"Motherhood isn’t meant to be this lonely, and during a time like this I feel new mums need that extra support... The longer it goes on, the lonelier it gets."

We must PLAN for #perinatalMH during and beyond Covid-19: https://t.co/bS3F2bKjqk #PleaToPLAN https://t.co/IXYTneS7th
