Lovemere asks A Clinical Psychologist

Question 1: How can I mentally prepare for birth so I feel more in control?

We sat down with Ping Qi, a Principal Clinical Psychologist and Perinatal Mental Health Specialist at Mount Alvernia Hospital.

Her insight?

You can only control what's within your control, not everything. And that's okay.

Motherhood rarely goes exactly to plan. Making peace with that is part of the preparation. Share your hopes, your worries, your expectations of life as a new family unit with your love ones.

Those conversations matter more than you think.

Thank you Ms Poh Ping Qi, Principal Clinical Psychologist and Perinatal Mental Health Specialist at Mount Alvernia Hospital.
