A World's First Study of Men's Mental Health and Wellbeing during Pregnancy and Afterbirth

"Are you and your partner expecting a child?
Is your partner between 12-17 weeks pregnant?
Would you like to contribute to a world first study on health and wellbeing in men pre and post birth?"

Men and their pregnant partners who are between 12 to 17 weeks gestation are invited to take part in a study that examines the psychological well-being of men and their partners throughout pregnancy and the first 12 months post birth.

This is a confidential study, being conducted by Mr Kim Yiong Wee, Dr Helen Skouteris, Dr Ciaran Pier and Dr Ben Richardson from the School of Psychology, Deakin University. The findings of this study will contribute invaluable information to the literature about paternal psychological well-being during pregnancy and the first year post birth.

Participation will entail completing a set of questionnaires at 18, 25, 33 weeks gestation and 6 weeks, 12weeks, 6 months and 12 months postpartum (You can choose to do the questionnaires online or we can send you hardcopies). While this may sound like a lot, the questionnaires will take less than 20 minutes to complete at each time.

If you are interested in participating in this vital research or would like more information about our study, please contact Mr Kim Yiong Wee at kywe@deakin.edu.au

We look forward to hearing from you!
