How to reduce the risk of Postpartum Psychosis?

One of the most important means of reducing the risk is for the mother to take preventative measures where possible. This means that all pregnant women should test and see if they are at high risk of Postpartum Psychosis.

This will allow everyone concerned to be well prepared in assisting at birth. A good idea is to provide a written plan for everyone, describing the care the mother will need after birth. Remember to make regular visits to your mental health specialist, to ensure everything is in order.
