My Baby, Psychosis and Me

With his team of experts Dr Alain Gregoire, who spoke at Home-Start in Hampshire’s conference in March 2015, provides women with the care and intensive treatment needed to bring them back to recovery.  From the bedroom to the nursery, the hospital theatre to the psychiatrist’s chair – the programme documents the most personal moments of motherhood and mental illness for Jenny and Hannah, as Dr Gregoire and his team face two of the most challenging cases they’ve experienced. But in one respect Jenny and Hannah are fortunate; they have access to the expert treatment they desperately need. With a severe shortage of specialist psychiatric care for mums-to-be and new mothers, it’s a postcode lottery that determines whether women get the expert help they urgently need – over 80% in the UK don’t.
