Some Resources

in Case of Crisis

If you are unsure about your mental health, we have written a Guide to Mom’s* Mental Health

We also encourage you to take the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale Test

PMADs (perinatal mood and anxiety disorders) are the most common complications of childbearing. This 10-question self-rating scale has been proven to be an efficient and effective way of identifying patients at risk for “perinatal” depression. This test was specifically designed for women* who are pregnant or have just had a baby.

Please note that we do not handle medical emergencies.
