Antenatal fact sheets for women and their families

Evidence based information on antenatal mental health conditions

COPE has developed a series of antenatal mental health fact sheets that can be downloaded and printed. All information contained in these resources are underpinned by the National Perinatal Mental Health Guideline.  The National Guideline relies on the latest evidence to recommend the most effective ways to identify, diagnose and treat mental health conditions that women may develop in pregnancy and the postnatal period. These antenatal fact sheets include:

• Antenatal Anxiety

• Antenatal Depression 

• Bipolar Disorder in Pregnancy

• Borderline Personality Disorder During Pregnancy

• Eating Disorders in Pregnancy

• Safe Use of Medication in the Perinatal Period

• Schizophrenia in Pregnancy
