Hello all - am rolling Iris and the growing max kicker bump along Hove seafront on Saturday in aid of the NCT's work to combat post-natal depression.

Half of all new mums suffer from some sort of ‘baby blues’ and for 1 in 10 this becomes a far more serious problem.

Sadly, research suggests that only 31% of women receive all the emotional support that they need after giving birth and so many are left feeling helpless and alone.

Your £35 sponsorship could pay for 6 weeks of support from an NCT Postnatal Leader for a new mother, giving her confidence in caring for her baby.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
