Did you know that Post Natal Depression affects 10-15% of women and it is a recognised mental health condition?
This is something that is very close to my heart as I was affected by it after the birth of my second child, Archie. With quick action from my health visitor, medication, and counselling I was soon on my way to better health, I know others aren’t so lucky.
When I set up my Buggy Fitness class in 2007, I naively thought it was all about exercise, but the years have taught me it is about so much more. Getting out in the fresh air and chatting amongst their peers are great mood boosters and can have a positive impact on mental health.
Have you or do you know anyone that has recently had a baby, I would love to meet them at my next course which starts in June – a great time of year to be outdoors.
