Tell us your story about mental health during pregnancy

We want to know more about you or your partner's experience of mental health support when planning to get pregnant, during pregnancy, at the birth of your child and afterwards.

The NHS is spending more money on maternal mental health support but we want to know if this is making a difference. We want to know whether services are doing everything they can to support people with mental health challenges during or after pregnancy to ensure the whole family is supported. You can help by sharing your experience or encouraging anyone you know who might be affected to complete our short survey.
