Motherhood in Lockdown: 150 Mothers on Pregnancy, Birth and Postpartum in a Pandemic A powerful collective case study of the devastating impact of harsh maternity restrictions on maternal mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic. This book brings together 150 honest accounts from mothers who were forced to navigate pregnancy, birth, and postpartum in isolation, highlighting the value of human connection and the strength that can appear in vulnerable moments. Through these raw and powerful stories, the book sheds light on the huge mistakes made during this period and the profound impact they will be felt for years to come. The collective anger of mothers was not going to stay suppressed for long, and it's time their stories are heard. This book is a testament to the resilience of mothers and the importance of their voices being heard.
