When actress Tanya Newbould experienced PPD with her daughter she did not understand what was wrong with her or how to go about getting help. Tanya teamed up with Director Jamielyn Lippman to uncover this illness that affects one in five new mothers. One of the women they interviewed was Lindsay Gerszt who was currently suffering from postpartum depression. Lindsay agreed to let the cameras document her and give us an in depth look at her path to recovery. Babies are dying, women aren't speaking out and the signs are being missed. Together these three women take us on a journey to find answers and break the silence. ## Streaming options in the United Kingdom ### Stream (subscription) - [Amazon Prime Video](https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=When%20the%20Bough%20Breaks%3A%20A%20Documentary%20About%20Postpartum%20Depression&i=instant-video) - [Amazon Prime Video with Ads](https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=When%20the%20Bough%20Breaks%3A%20A%20Documentary%20About%20Postpartum%20Depression&i=instant-video) ### Free (with ads or TV licence) - [Amazon Prime Video Free with Ads](https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=When%20the%20Bough%20Breaks%3A%20A%20Documentary%20About%20Postpartum%20Depression&i=instant-video) ### Rent (typically 24-48 hours) - [Apple TV Store](https://tv.apple.com/gb/search?term=When%20the%20Bough%20Breaks%3A%20A%20Documentary%20About%20Postpartum%20Depression) - [Amazon Video](https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=When%20the%20Bough%20Breaks%3A%20A%20Documentary%20About%20Postpartum%20Depression&i=instant-video) ### Buy (digital download) - [Apple TV Store](https://tv.apple.com/gb/search?term=When%20the%20Bough%20Breaks%3A%20A%20Documentary%20About%20Postpartum%20Depression) - [Amazon Video](https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=When%20the%20Bough%20Breaks%3A%20A%20Documentary%20About%20Postpartum%20Depression&i=instant-video) ## Frequently asked questions **Where can I stream When the Bough Breaks: A Documentary About Postpartum Depression in the UK?** When the Bough Breaks: A Documentary About Postpartum Depression (2017) is currently included in subscriptions to Amazon Prime Video and Amazon Prime Video with Ads in the United Kingdom.
