Abstract

Perinatal anxiety (PNA), anxiety that occurs during pregnancy and/or up to 12 months post-partum, is estimated to affect up to 21% of women, and may impact negatively on mothers, children and their families. The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence has called for further research around non-pharmacological interventions in primary care for PNA.
