I was moved by Rosie Marcel xx talking about her #mentalhealth #HolbyCity storylines on This Morning - her openness and honesty on how it reflected her real life, was touching 🙏

Being asked if I will write judgey 'expert commentary' about how Meghan is carrying her baby in a sling 'wrong'. No, I won't. Time to stop subjecting her - & all women - to endless scrutiny & instead start raising them up, supporting them & f***ing thanking them for what they do.

“If this is the future, no wonder so many women I know can’t wait to get back to work – just so that they might actually have a moment to themselves.” Yep 😐

What to do when you’re missing someone. A toolkit from my book #standtalllikeamountain, designed for kids but equally applicable for adults. From my heart to yours xx #griefjourney #childrensmentalhealth #emotionalhealth

In ortho clinic this afternoon I was fascinated to hear that most of my surgical colleagues had not heard of pelvic girdle pain or diastasis recti. Perhaps we have more work to do than I realised! These common complaints should be understood at medical school!

Picture and word of a grieving mother. I find it so hard to understand those whose response is to tell her to be quiet, or criticise for posting this image. Don’t look if you don’t want to. But don’t think you have a right to censor a woman’s grief, body or words. #babyloss

This is easily my favorite season of CNN so far.

On Valentines Day, I just want to say that if your partner does or says horrible things to you, and then suggests or implies you have a mental health issue, need help, need therapy or suggest you are crazy, they are gaslighting you and deliberately repositioning you as mad.

I'll say this once again - it would be far more logical & effective to give all teenage boys a vasectomy, only reversed when they decide to have kids, than to curtail the right of women & girls - particularly those who have been raped - to decide whether or not to become mothers.
