It’s something I’ve alluded to for a while but not openly admitted: I suffered from antenatal depression whilst pregnant. Thankfully, now that I’m feeling a million times better, I’m ready to be more open and honest about my perinatal mental health and I’m looking forward to sharing more about my experience.
The start of my story is part of Mumsy Midwife‘s Mums and Mental Health series: read it here.
If you think you might be suffering perinatal mental health issues or know someone who is and haven’t yet sought help – I can’t encourage you to do so enough. It MASSIVELY helped me. I am by no means an expert or even that knowledgeable in the area, but I am always here to listen if you or someone you know would like to talk. You can find me on the following social media links or feel free to send me an email.
