Book Synopsis
The real-life story of a young mum with postpartum depression - and how a small, specialist NHS hospital is saving women''s lives

Laura Canty is a new mum.

She has her beautiful baby boy, Arthur, and a wonderful husband. She has new mum friends on the local WhatsApp group, and everyone in her life is supportive and happy for her. But Laura doesn''t see it this way.

In the weeks since her baby was born, like 1 in 5 women, Laura has developed Postpartum Depression. In fact, she has decided that the only way out of her current situation is for her to kill herself, or her baby...

Laura Canty has written a moving and refreshingly honest memoir, full of truth and hope, to finally lift the lid on Postpartum Depression, revealing not only the little discussed realities of the illness -but also how an incredible NHS Mother and Baby Unit literally saved her and Arthur''s lives.
