Pregnancy in Mind
Pregnancy in Mind is a preventative mental health service designed to support expectant parents who are at risk of, or currently experiencing, mild to moderate anxiety and low mood during their pregnancy.
It helps parents manage any difficulties they are experiencing and builds their capacity to provide sensitive, responsive care to their babies through the post-natal period and beyond as their children develop.
Pregnancy in Mind is a perinatal 8-week group intervention delivered by professionals after the first trimester of pregnancy. It aims to protect against the impact of parental anxiety and depression during pregnancy through building relationships, knowledge and skills.
The programme is underpinned by six core evidence-based themes:
Expectant parents can attend the programme between 12- and 34-weeks’ gestation. However, referrals can only be accepted between 12 and 26 weeks of pregnancy and the programme should be completed by their 34th week.
Pregnancy in Mind is for those who are at risk of or already experiencing mild to moderate anxiety and low mood. Attendees do not have to have a formal diagnosis of anxiety or depression.
