Suicide is the leading cause of maternal deaths in the UK, with new mums in deprived areas more than twice as likely to die by suicide.
This #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek, RCPsych is calling for perinatal psychiatrists to be positioned at the centre of services, enabling them to treat all mothers and pregnant people who need it.

Dr Angelika Wieck delivers a very insightful talk on latest updates on psychopharmacology in perinatal period.
Addresses on pertinent topics around aripiprazole & breast feeding , ECT in perinatal period & a study on outcomes of mothers who used cannabis in pregnancy
Fascinating talk-Alloparenting, shared caregiving increases responsive care for infants and reduces guilt, shame, and postnatal depression.
It takes a village to raise a child
