Understanding and supporting mood crises after birth (1)

Childbirth is one of the most stressful events in a woman's life. This enormous strain on the body and the psyche often leads to upsets - both on a mental and physical level.

The first days and weeks after the birth often determine whether the experience is processed positively or whether the symptoms increase.

​

Doulas can provide initial emotional support, give confidence and provide psychoeducational support, especially in the initial period after the birth.
