Key points from our #COVID19NewMumStudy on maternal mental health & coping. A large proportion of new mothers reported symptoms of low mood, anxiety and loneliness during the lockdown. Latest @bestbeginnings #BabiesInLockdown report has also shown this. Urgent action is needed!

Some positive results! 4/5 #COVID19NewMumStudy

[COVID-19 New Mum Study @newmumstudy]

The lockdown measures also affected the infant feeding support received. 3/5 #COVID19NewMumStudy

[COVID-19 New Mum Study @newmumstudy]

Most frequent reason given was the lack of face-to-face help with breastfeeding that led them to start expressing milk, start providing formula, or stop breastfeeding. 2/5 #COVID19NewMumStudy

[COVID-19 New Mum Study @newmumstudy]

Some of the highlights from our study (pre-print results): The most common reasons given for the change in birth plans were having to give birth in hospital rather than a midwife-led unit and being allowed one birth partner only. 1/5 #COVID19NewMumStudy
