I am in teh early stages of considering setting up a mother-and-baby group for women suffering from post-natal depression or stress.
It would be hosted by a local branch of a mental health charity who have a suitable large room.
There would be two members of staff who would provide breastfeeding support and mental health support, and probably the involvement of a health visitor.
Does this sound like a good idea? Does anyone have any thoughts about the pros and cons of such a scheme?
