Many people experience pregnancy, birth and early parenthood without significant difficulties. However, for some women, birthing people and their families, unexpected challenges can arise. In this film, mothers share their personal experiences of pregnancy with mental health conditions they had before pregnancy, and the support that helped them throughout. If any of these experiences feel familiar or bring up difficult feelings for you, you don’t have to manage them alone. You can speak to your midwife, GP or another healthcare professional you trust for support. 💜

We’ve been busy working on something really special! 🩵

Sussex MNVPs have come together with service users to create a series of lived experience films around perinatal mental health.

In these films, we hear directly from women about their experiences of pregnancy, birth and the postnatal period, their mental health journeys, what helped them, what they found difficult, and what they wish others had known.

These films are about real experiences, real voices and the things that can make a difference.

Here’s a little sneak peek… find the link to see all the videos and resources here - 🩵 womenshealthsussex.org/maternity/after-the-birth/perinatal-mental-health

The journey you don’t see. 💗

Feeling unheard. Being judged. Putting on a brave face when you’re struggling inside. These are experiences Black mothers have shared through The Motherhood Group’s work.

Every mother deserves to feel safe, be taken seriously and find a place where she can bring her full self.

This Black Maternal Mental Health Week UK, led nationally by The Motherhood Group, we’re honouring the journeys behind the words.

Joy • Justice • Journey.

Black maternal mental health matters. This week and every week.

Share this. Help us make more mothers feel heard and less alone.
