All babies count: spotlight on perinatal mental health

All babies count: spotlight on perinatal mental health: This report calls on health ministers to address gaps in mental health services for pregnant women and new mothers. It argues that the wellbeing of more than one in 10 newborn babies in England could be improved if all new mothers with mental illness had equal access to good
services. It highlights a geographical variation in access to mental health services for new mothers with less than half of mental health trusts providing specialist mental health services for expectant and new mums.
