Online Rally

The Postpartum Progress Annual Mother’s Day Rally for Mom’s Mental Health was started in 2009 to bring about greater awareness of perinatal mood & anxiety disorders and the wide variety of experiences faced by mothers who have them.

Every year on Mother’s Day, the Postpartum Progress blog posts one letter each hour, on the hour, for 24 hours straight.  These letters addressed to pregnant and new mothers are written by survivors of and experts on perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, as well as by others who care about the mental health of moms.  Many are nationally-recognized, award-winning female bloggers and parenting authors.

This 24-hour celebration of the importance of emotional health for new mothers serves annually as new inspiration to struggling moms.
