[Singing Mamas CIC @singingmamascic]

Up to 15% suffer from #pnd & if not addressed, this can impact negatively on mother & baby

@rosielperkins & @daisy_fancourt found that daily singing to babies is associated with fewer symptoms of PND & higher levels of perceived mum-baby bond

[Alison Morton OBE💙 @Alison_Morton2]

Fantastic to have the brilliant @EdgeDawn speaking about ethnic disparities in perinatal health care. Powerful presentation- challenged the view that we need “standardised” care, instead we need personalised care with equality of quality #ihvpimh2023 @iHealthVisiting

[Alison Morton OBE💙 @Alison_Morton2]

Fab presentation @ElizabethRapa speaking about the Brain Story - key points:
-All brains are built
-Predominantly during 2 critical periods - first 1001 days & adolescence
-Executive function is a key skill- a personal “air traffic controller”/mental flexibility #iHVPIMH2023

Day 1 of #BabyCommunicationWeek23 !!
Is crying the only way newborns can communicate? It's time to be fascinated by how skilled babies are at telling us about themselves; how they are feeling and what they need from us. It's all in their behaviour!

[Paul J. Gilbert -Psychotherapist. @pauljgilbert_]

The Psychotherapy worm is turning it appears. Good to hear more research being done on longer term therapies.

Short-term psychodynamic therapy is more effective than CBT for depression, study finds https://t.co/A9U7XthBBa via @MITUKTeam

[Harry J Zeit MD @HarryZeitMD]

From a place of pure curiosity, I think we need to ask why are more than half of clinical trials looking at CBT.
Whose interest (or convenience) does this serve?
Why are other models being ignored by the academic and research community in the midst of a mental health crisis?
