Preparing for your visit
Up to 80 per cent of new birthing parents will experience what is known as the “baby blues”. This low mood, which can make you feel incredibly sad, tearful and emotional, is a response to the physiological and hormonal changes happening in your body. It typically occurs in the first two weeks after your baby is born.
If this low mood extends beyond two weeks and starts to impact your ability to function, you might be experiencing a perinatal mood and anxiety disorder like postpartum depression and you should see your health-care provider. They can refer you to a counsellor, the reproductive mental health program at St. Paul’s, or other community resources.

If you are new to the clinic and need directions when you arrive at St. Paul’s Hospital, ask a volunteer or reception for directions to our front door. Please remember the name of the clinic to get the best assistance.
