As a perinatal clinical psychologist I can sadly confirm that lockdown measures & maternity visiting restrictions have been disastrous for parents’ MH.

Mother and baby need to be classed as one person. Baby groups ARE support groups. Partners are NOT visitors. #ButNotMaternity

Morning! When we are able to meet again in person, as a new parent you're going to want to be around other new parents who get where you are. Join our live, social, interactive online antenatal courses and meet local new parent friends. We've got you. https://t.co/uSUfveQWE9

We know everyone might be feeling nervous about the latest government guidance but we're here for you.

We had our first virtual antenatal courses last night to make sure that we can continue to bring parents together and support you through these uncertain times.

If you’re booked onto a course we’ll be in touch over the next few days. 💚

It’s official – new mothers will now be able to have their own six week check focusing on their health, as well as one for their baby.

Thank you to the supporters involved with the #HiddenHalf campaign. We couldn’t have done it without you!

The Duchess of Cambridge has launched a national survey to “spark the biggest ever conversation on early childhood”. Through our branches and courses, we know how important the early years are. Have your say on the Five Big Questions: https://t.co/s4Hu9wdD53.

I asked women who wanted to breastfeed but stopped before they were ready what we change to be more supportive. Over 2000 told me their story and these were the main ideas. What would you add?

[Lucie L @LucieLNCT]

@SHIV_angee @YJGailey @NCTcharity Happy anniversary @YJGailey . You are indeed the best planner.🤩
