Maternal Mental Wellbeing Marlborough
Maternal Mental Wellbeing Marlborough (previously Postnatal Depression Marlborough Charitable Trust), established in 2005, is a life line in the community for many women and families who are struggling with postnatal depression, motherhood and parenting issues. Having a baby is both an exciting and challenging time. Adding anxiety or depression can make it difficult to function and feel like you are a good enough parent. Both women and men can experience perinatal (during pregnancy and the year after birth) mental health issues and these can vary in intensity and symptoms. MMWM provides support, counselling and education to women and their families who experience difficulties related to pregnancy, pregnancy loss and the postpartum period.
