Babies are born communicators! But we adults can’t always respond and miss out on the joy of the relationship and the long term benefits for us all - but there’s all kinds of kind help out there. Happy #BabyCommunicationWeek23
Brazelton Centre UK@BrazeltonUK

WHY we run this awareness week each year ♥ Please help us to share this if you believe that baby communication matters 🙏🏾 We extend to you the most enthusiastic invitation to get involved in #BabyCommunicationWeek23. Only together can realise this exciting vision!

Ended a day of fabulous talks at National #PerinatalMH Course with Pete Lawrence on perinatal intrusive/obsessional thoughts: the risks & potential harm are from professional overreaction, not that they could come true. The distress is enormous @maternalocd

Day5 #MHAW23 10%+ of us & 50%+ of people in contact with mental health services suffer from #CPTSD, usually the result of childhood traumas. Mostly unrecognised, or labelled as ‘personality disorder’, anxious, self-harming, substance misuse,‘medically unexplained symptoms’..WHY?

Day4 #MHAW23 Foetuses & babies sense traumatic environments too - via severe maternal anxiety/depression. Which mothers get this most? Those who experienced trauma, ++in childhood. How can we nurture foetuses & babies? By nurturing parents during @Earlychildhood #BabyBlindspot

Day3 #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek The top predictor of lifelong mental & physical health is exposure to adverse childhood experiences #ACEs The earlier, including pregnancy, the greater the effects. Maternal mental wellbeing protects so let’s nurture parents of very young children

On day two of #mentalhealthawarenessweek remember we are social animals from conception. Survival, health & happiness relies on the relationships we have with others. The worst traumas are relationship traumas, the greatest joys, relationship joys. Be kind to ourselves and others

During #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek let us remember we are the first generation to be given the opportunity by science to prevent mental health problems by supporting parents during pregnancy and postnatally and nurturing their efforts on our behalf to care for the next generation

You are so right Sandra. Women with #perinatalmentalhealth problems, their babies and families all over the world, fundamentally need the same thing: well-informed understanding, support and sometimes care from other human beings. Keep shouting for them to get it!
Sandra Igwe@sandeeigwe

@GibbleJo I’ve learnt so much! And it’s so interesting how many of our national recommendations are the almost identical globally too.
