S6 Ep 15 - perinatal mental health with midwife Laura Walton

In this episode I chat to Specialist perinatal mental health midwife Laura Walton, for a live Instagram Q&A on perinatal mental health. We discuss the warning signs signalling possible PND or postnatal anxiety, the differences between baby blues, PND, intrusive thoughts, OCD and postnatal anxiety, and the kinds of support is there if you think you need it. Although this episode features support available locally in Bromley, Kent, your NHS trust and GP will be able to signpost you to local services if you feel you need support.   The Better Birth podcast is hosted by hypnobirthing and antenatal teacher Erin Fung.
