ABSTRACT
AIMS/

BACKGROUND:

We aimed to adapt, pilot and explore experiences of receiving and delivering the video feedback intervention for positive parenting (VIPP) for 2 to 6 month old babies, mothers experiencing moderate to severe perinatal mental health difficulties and perinatal mental health clinicians. DESIGN/

METHODS:

The VIPP intervention was adapted to include developmentally appropriate activities and developmental psychoeducation for 2 to 6 month olds, alongside psychoeducation on emotion regulation, and then piloted in 14 mothers experiencing moderate to severe perinatal mental health difficulties (registration ISRCTN64237883). Observational and self-reported pre-post outcome data on parenting and parent-infant mental health was collected, and post-intervention qualitative interviews were conducted with participating mothers and clinicians.

RESULTS:

Consent (67%), intervention completion (79%) and follow-up rates (93%) were high. Effect sizes on pre-post outcome measures indicated large improvements in parenting confidence and perceptions of the parent-infant relationship, and a medium-size improvement in maternal sensitivity. In qualitative interviews, clinicians and mothers described how mothers' initial anxieties about being filmed were allayed through receiving positive and strengths-focussed feedback, boosting their self-confidence, and that the video feedback facilitated identification of young babies' subtle behavioural cues and moments of mother-infant connection. Streamlining the information provided on maternal emotion regulation, and allowing increased use of clinical judgement to tailor intervention delivery, were suggested to optimise intervention feasibility and acceptability.

CONCLUSION:

It is feasible and acceptable to implement VIPP with very young babies and their mothers experiencing perinatal mental health difficulties. A fully powered randomised controlled trial is required to establish intervention efficacy.
