Pregnancy is often described as a joyful time, yet for many people it is emotionally complex. Anxiety, low mood, fear, disconnection, or emotional overwhelm are common during pregnancy, and they deserve attention and care.

This blog explains the main antenatal mental health support options in the UK, what they offer, and how they can help.

January is often framed as a time of fresh starts, hope, and optimism. For many people, pregnancy is assumed to fit neatly into that narrative - a joyful beginning, something to feel grateful for, or something to celebrate. But for a significant number of expectant parents, January can feel emotionally heavier rather than hopeful.

This blog discusses how antenatal mental health challenges are far more common than many people realise, and why parents deserve care, understanding, and support during pregnancy, not just after birth.

Each year, from 9th to 15th October, people across the UK and around the world come together for Baby Loss Awareness Week – a time to remember babies who have died during pregnancy, at or soon after birth, or in infancy.

It’s a week for remembrance, reflection, and connection. A time to honour every story, raise awareness of the many forms of loss, and support families navigating grief in all its complexity.

In this blog, we’ll explore the many forms of baby loss, how grief can feel after baby loss, ways of supporting yourself and your loved ones, and ways to acknowledge your baby.
