The Maternal Mental Health Service (MMHS) is here to help you with problems in relation to a traumatic experience, loss or fear, during your pregnancy or birth. 

This might be:

  • A traumatic birth
  • A loss at any stage in your pregnancy
  • An extreme fear of giving birth
  • A fear of hospital or medical procedures
  • A complicated pregnancy experience (i.e. IVF)

This will have happened within the last 12 months, or you are currently pregnant.
