One new mother, surnamed Xie, told AFP she gave birth to her baby girl in Wuhan earlier this month alone, because nobody from her family was allowed to come with her to the hospital in the quarantined city where the outbreak emerged in December.
Some 56 million people in Wuhan and other cities in Hubei province have been under quarantine since late January.But Xu Tingting from Huanggang told AFP she struggled to find a vehicle to get to hospital when she went into labour two weeks before her due date. With some 80,000 infections nationwide and over 2,900 deaths, it isn’t just in the virus epicentre where new mothers are scared.
Mental health service providers have also seen an uptick in the number of calls from anxious new mothers. “I was very nervous. We didn’t have enough information at the time about this virus and that caused a lot of stress,” she said.
