After a pregnancy loss, partners may grieve for their unborn child differently. Here are 3 ways that can erode their relationship if they don’t take steps to reconnect, writes @VLeonidaki https://t.co/bLeHI1FmPm

[Dr Venetia Leonidaki @VLeonidaki]

As an NHS leader, NHS employee, clinician & woman affected by pregnancy loss, I am happy to read this by @NHSEngland: "NHS staff who suffer a #miscarriage will now receive up to 10 days additional paid leave". So supportive of this move & willing to share my expertise with NHS.

[NHS England @NHSEngland]

It can be hard to take the time you need to heal from the trauma of pregnancy loss.

A new national policy framework for staff is now available across the NHS, encouraging trusts to offer staff who suffer a miscarriage up to 10 days additional paid leave.

I enjoyed giving a presentation on Gambling Treatment earlier today at the BPS Conference of the Faculty of Addiction in London, UK.

The first conference of the Faculty in a few years and it was a full house.
