Having a baby is a big life event - it is natural to experience a range of emotions during and after your pregnancy. However, there are a number of mental health conditions unique to the perinatal period where it's important to seek professional help. Depression - The 'Baby Blues' - feeling sad, teary or irritable in the early days after birth - is normal; if these symptoms persist after two weeks, it could be more serious.

One of a few child psychiatrists in Sydney. Our GP sent a referral as a high priority and it was declined with no feedback. In a system that is already challenging to navigate, it is even worse that children with acute psychiatric needs are turned away without any care or support. We were not even recommended an alternate service to support our child.
