Supporting your mental health postpartum

Pregnancy, Birth and Recovery: FitNest Mama

Send us a text

Today I chat with Claire, a maternal child health nurse/midwife and founder of Safe Hands Early Parenting about mental health in the months after you welcome your baby.

Claire combines her professional and personal experience to help expectant parents (and those already in the thick of it!) feel empowered and more supported in their experience of raising their baby/toddler.

We discuss:

• Ways to support your mental health in the postpartum.
• Importance of self-care.
• Finding your village.
• Difference between a tough day/week and postnatal depression or anxiety.
• What are the next steps if you have concerns about your mental health
