If you suffer from the baby blues (postnatal depression) after having a baby, tell a friend or family member, midwife, health visitor, GP or if it lasts for a long time, you can contact A&E services and ask to speak to the duty psychiatrist. You do not have to be registered with a GP to see a doctor or nurse.
