01
Perinatal mood disorders are common — and treatable.
Antenatal depression affects ∼15% of pregnancies and postpartum depression ∼13%; both respond well to short-course cognitive behavioural therapy (WHO, 2022).

Maternal Mental Health
A counsellor and a lactation specialist, trained for this exact season.
Perinatal-trained counsellors and clinical psychologists on standby — and IBCLC-trained lactation specialists after birth — for the anxieties, the sleeplessness, the feeding worries and the tender interior of pregnancy.
Why it matters
Tended, not treated.
One in five women experience clinically significant anxiety or depression during pregnancy or the first year postpartum. Most go unscreened and untreated. Wombly makes screening routine and support unremarkable.
The science, in plain language
What the evidence says.
02
Structured screening finds the missed cases.
Routine use of the EPDS (Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale) increases detection of postpartum depression by more than 2× compared with clinical impression alone (Lancet Psychiatry, 2019).

Frequently asked
Questions mothers ask us.
01 Do I need a diagnosis to use this?
No. Support is open to every Wombly member — for everyday worry as much as for clinical concerns.
02 Is what I share kept private?
Yes. Sessions are confidential and never shared with family or clinicians without your written consent.
03 Can my partner join a session?
Absolutely. Couple and family sessions are included on request.
04 Are sessions in-person or online?
Online by default, in your language of comfort. In-person is available in select cities.
