We’d like to hear from new parents in the UK who are struggling to cope, whether that is due to financial pressures, health issues or a general lack of support in their daily lives.

Whether you are struggling with post-partum physical or mental health issues, your living or housing situation, your finances or anything else recently since becoming a parent, we’d like to hear about it.
