Welcome to our new section, about pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, babies, children and early parenting! Childbirth is a special time for both mums and partners, and also an important transition if it is your first child.
I am a qualified antenatal teacher with the National Childbirth Trust, Britain’s leading charity for information about pregnancy, childbirth and early parenting.
I regularly offer health advice in pregnancy and childbirth, breastfeeding, and for babies and children, as part of my homeopathic practice. Below you will find a list of links to various info sheets. These are not NCT info sheets, they are my own. I hope to add much more as time goes on, and I welcome your ideas.
I have prepared these info sheets as guides only, and they are not intended as a substitute for appropriate medical information, nor as any form of diagnosis or treatment. I encourage all expectant mums and their partners to keep close links with their midwives and doctors, and to use their own careful judgement about other sources of information, especially on the internet.
Some of this information may not be applicable outside the UK.
