This episode looks at how it’s almost expected for parents to struggle with their mental health when they have spent time in neonatal. The unit is traumatic and intense and parents can spend weeks feeling on edge and fearful and that is bound to have an impact. Here we look at some of the common mental health issues parents can have, at why they occur and at some of the support that is available.
There are also some charitable organisations that can be really helpful including
- Bliss – they offer advice for parents of premature and sick babies, including looking after your mental health
- Mind – for better mental health
