Weve teamed up with the amazing folks behind Smiling Mind to create Mind the Bump – a world-first App designed to support the mental health and wellbeing of new and expecting parents. The free App, which has already been downloaded more than 15,000 times, is designed for mothers, fathers and partners alike. At least one in seven women will experience postnatal depression and up to one in ten will experience it during pregnancy. Anxiety conditions are thought to be at least as common as depression during this time. Mind the Bump has been designed by mental health professionals and is based on extensive research showing the benefits of ‘mindfulness’, which is the process of not worrying about the past or future and instead paying attention to the present moment with purpose and without judgement. The meditations, some of which are voiced by Carrie Bickmore, run for between three and 10 minutes each. Visit mindthebump.org.au for more information or to download it via the Apple Store or Google Play. #mindthebump
