This Mother’s Day, we are proud to partner with Momcozy to launch several initiatives designed to encourage mothers to prioritize their own needs while expanding access to meaningful support.

"At Postpartum Support International, we believe every family deserves a strong, supported start during one of life's most profound transitions," said Wendy N. Davis, PhD, PMH-C, President and CEO of PSI. "Perinatal mental health is at the heart of family wellbeing, and each stage of the journey can bring its own challenges. We're grateful to have lent our voice to the Truths of Motherhood Report alongside Momcozy. Our deepest hope is simple: that anyone who is struggling knows where to find help, knows they are not alone, and knows that with help, they can get through the hardest times."

From April 26–May 10, Momcozy is donating 15% of proceeds from select products to help expand access to PSI’s free support services, so more parents can go from “I don’t know what’s happening” to “I’m not alone.”

Getting pregnant after infertility doesn't always feel the way you imagined it would.

You fought so hard to get here, and now you might be wondering why it still feels so hard. That's not a failure. It's a very human response to an incredibly complex journey.

In our latest blog, therapist and PMH-C Emily Morehead of The Couch Therapy explores what National Infertility Awareness Month means for those parenting after infertility, including the real emotional weight of body trust, birth planning, and the heightened risk of perinatal mental health disorders that can follow.

Perinatal mental health is expanding fast.

And the providers shaping care are actively deciding:
what to trust,
what to use,
and who to partner with.

PSICON2026 puts your brand in front of 1,200+ of those providers.
Not passively...directly.

This is where clinical decisions are influenced, where relationships are built, and where brands position themselves as leaders in perinatal mental health.

If your organization is serious about this space,
you should be in Los Angeles this summer.

Sponsorships are limited.

Early partners secure the strongest visibility and access.

Parenthood after loss and infertility is a journey filled with love, grief, and resilience 🧡

In this powerful blog by Vasthie Arteaga, M.D., PMH-C, we explore the complex emotions that can come with raising a child while carrying memories of what could have been.

✨ Highlights:
• Navigating anxiety during pregnancy after loss
• Coping with “what could have been” moments
• Understanding a different kind of mom guilt
• Finding peace while honoring both grief and joy

“There comes a time where you'll need to find a peace that is your own.”
Your story, your healing, your timeline 💙
