Anyone can experience a perinatal mental health problem, although there are some factors which increase someone's chance of becoming unwell, including:

• a history of mental health problems
• biological causes
• lack of support
• difficult experiences during childhood
• domestic abuse
• financial concerns or insecure housing
• traumatic experiences, including birth trauma.

Active Mums Club have a dedicated resource on their website listing local support services as well as programmes of physical activities across Leicestershire for pre and post natal women to access.
