New mum seems strange? Seek help. It could be postpartum psychosis, a treatable medical emergency. Help make an urgent appointment with their doctor, midwife, health visitor or call 111. If you think there is imminent danger, call 999. With help they will recover.

What a difference a year makes - Belfast Marathon 2025 and @RCP_NI & community nurses ran to highlight need for an MBU in NI. This week saw @mikenesbittni announcing #MBUNI will open 2028/29. Mothers will hold @niexecutive to account. Good luck to all mums running today. 🌈🏃‍♀️🤞

A permanent mother and baby unit will be built in the grounds of the Belfast City Hospital. Northern Ireland is the only part of the UK without such a facility, forcing around 100 women a year to be separated from their babies when admitted to general psychiatric wards

If you haven't seen Mums in Crisis please take half an hour to watch to understand why today's Mother and Baby Unit announcement is so important. You'll also understand why @mlchealth is a finalist in @amnesty journalist awards - this was such an impactful programme.

After campaigning for almost 20 years, I'm over the moon that a NI Mother and Baby Unit will open. This will save lives and prevent life-long trauma. So, so proud to have worked with @ActionOnPP for 4 years and with @rcpsychNI nearly 20 years ago.

It was an honour to support behind the scenes with @ActionOnPP - Mums in Crisis shows just how desperately NI needs a mental health mother and baby unit. @mlchealth and her colleagues deserve this recognition and NI mums deserve an MBU!

Congratulations to all the finalists in the Amnesty Media Awards 2026, including @BBCSpotlightNI for Mums in Crisis, an investigation by @mlchealth into perinatal mental health care in NI, showing just how urgently a Mother and Baby Unit is needed to save lives. 👏
