Specialist Midwife for Mental Health Services

[OUH Maternity @TeamOUHMat]

This week is #Maternal Mental Health Awareness Week; a week-long campaign dedicated to talking about mental illness while pregnant or after having a baby.
The theme for this year is “Rediscovering You”. #Maternitymentalhealthawareness https://t.co/0eCgZY5Fwi @OUHospitals

[Action on Postpartum Psychosis @ActionOnPP]

Feel like your partner or friend is not themselves?

It could be postpartum psychosis, a treatable medical emergency.

Help make an urgent appointment with their Doctor, Midwife or call 111. If you think there is imminent danger, call 999. With help they will recover.

@PregnantScrewed @PJTheEconomist So pleased @PregnantScrewed has responded to this! The fact that the cost of childcare means going back to work isn't worthwhile has been completely overlooked!
