Stop Peddling The Myth Of The Perfect Mum

Stop Peddling the Myth Of The Perfect Mum

This post addresses the myth of the perfect mum to help  new mothers with postnatal depression cope with this debilitating condition.


A parenting guru today called on major baby brands to stop peddling the myth of the “perfect parent” and do more to help mothers suffering with postnatal depression.

Entrepreneur Siobhan Freegard, 50, co-founded Netmums following the birth of her first child in 2000. It grew into one of the biggest parenting  websites, with hundreds of support groups, thousands of bloggers and  millions of monthly web visitors.

After selling up six years ago she quit as managing director in 2014 and founded a new online community for mothers to encourage more open  discussion around topics such as  postnatal depression.
