Women’s lives at risk from lack of maternal mental health support – BBC Newsnight
Pregnancy and the early months of motherhood can be a time of great vulnerability for women. Almost one in five women experience a mental health condition during pregnancy or the first year of their child’s life.
In 2016 the UK government pledged a revolution in mental health services, including almost £300 million to provide specialist care for expectant or new mothers.
But new data, shared exclusively with Newsnight shows that despite progress, services across the UK are still struggling to meet their targets.
And while the numbers of women who take their own lives when they are pregnant or in the first year after giving birth are small – the risk of the worst outcome appears to be rising.
Newsnight’s Science Correspondent Kate Lamble reports.

Tech Now’s Paul Carter finds out how technology powering advanced prosthetics is also helping train humanoid robots.
The Ability Hand is a special piece of prosthetics technology, with two ambitions running through the same piece of hardware.
One is to give somebody their grip back. The other is to take what that person’s hand already knows – and teach it to a machine.

AI can always be controlled, the president of encrypted messaging app Signal has told the BBC.
Meredith Whittaker said fears that AI could become conscious and take over were “not anchored in science and evidence”, warning instead about the dangers of using the technology in military decision-making.
The former Google employee said AI could “supercharge mistakes” and reflected on her role in opposing the company’s involvement in a US military drone surveillance project.
Speaking to the BBC Global Women, Whittaker also questioned who gets to shape the future of AI, criticised the concentration of power in Silicon Valley and explained why Signal would leave a country rather than compromise its users’ privacy.

Developer Moonshot is conducting an internal review after researchers were able to persuade two of its popular Kimi models to tell them how to make biological weapons and carry out assassinations.
Mindgard, which tests the security of AI systems, told the BBC it discovered in July that Kimi K2.6 and K3 Swarm could evade safety limits put in place by developers.
It arose during a process called “jailbreaking”, where researchers use a series of complex instructions to see if AI tools ignore guardrails – which Mindgard said should have stopped Kimi from discussing concerning topics.
Moonshot told the BBC it welcomed third-party input “as a key pillar for building better and safer AI”.

It's very distressing to see this. 1 in 5 mothers go through this. They aren't deliberately thinking this way. Its how the postpartum depression is. They might feel difficulty in controlling their thoughts. Surely no mother would want to harm her child. Thanks for bringing out this topic.

woman has a violent thoughts of purposefully harming her baby: "depression, poor woman, need help her"
man has a violent thoughts of purposefully harming his baby: "monster, psychopath, put him in a jail"
Statistically, more men commit suicide than women. Who care..

I wish someone would take a poll of all these "believers" how many of the males caused the need for abortion and how many of these females had one or more. were party to an abortion.
@muckraker7942
January 6, 2024 at 4:00 pm
Some of this stems from the trauma a lot of women are unnecessarily suffering during childbirth at the hands of the midwives, nurses and doctors. It’s a form of transference. This isn’t new, it is also common in trench warfare. Anyway, I’m sure the right people know this, but they will divert attention away from the true cause and instead use it to get more funding for their own needs. Oh well.

When the woman is pregnant she’s not vulnerable 🤦🏻♂️
Imagine the queen bee 🐝 who is responsible for a hive. Is the queen bee vulnerable?
The problem is the communication between husband and wife, she doesn’t speak to him 🤦🏻♂️
How is he supposed to know if she doesn’t tell him? 🤦🏻♂️

Is this a promotion for justifying abortion? If it is about Mental Health then a law should be enacted that no woman be allowed to have children. This would protect the life of millions, upon millions and millions of woman. Stupid comment? Just like the stupidity of a mother murdering her own child in her womb.

In the west, everything related to motherhood is "bad", " dangerous", "life threatening" for women.
and everything related to prostitution, porn, nudity, babi kiling aborsion is good for women.
wait, west now doesn't even know what "women" is.
how nasty western society has become!

As a person that raised 3 kids on my own without the help of relatives nor friends it is really hard to get through. I totally agree with her in everything she says and at the same time it's needed to depend solely in God. Thank God she was able to have someone who she can speak with without being judged something that's hard to find in someone nowadays.
