Hello. I am wifey to Mark and loving Mummy to Dotty who is now 2 and Kitty who is nearly 4 months.

Very soon after having Dotty, I realised something wasn't right. I was very anxious and paranoid and was becoming more and more sad. I put on a very happy face but inside I was crumbling and I couldnt work out why. I should have been so happy.

I didn't tell anyone how I was feeling. I hid it really well and carried on planning our wedding and bringing up Dots. Mark was very supportive and so loving. He would tell me everyday how well I was doing and that he would always be there for me. I went back to work and starting running again. I went back to work and felt like I was becoming "normal" again.

Then I got pregnant with Kitty which was a big surprise. I felt really happy but so so scared.
St Michaels hospital (certain staff in particular - you know who you are). They put me in touch with Bluebell for extra support whilst pregnant.

Hannah from bluebell is an absolutely fantastic, caring person. She helped me so much and gave me all the care and support I needed. I can not thank her and Bluebell enough. Bluebell helped me throughout my pregnancy and after the birth with Kitty. I am truly grateful and want to try give as much back as I possibly can.
