Making Decisions
Pregnancy can affect many of the decisions you normally make on a day to day basis, such as what you eat and your activity levels. It also affects the decisions that you make about your care – where to have your care, choosing your practitioner, and then the choices about screening, treatments, your birth and postnatal care.
This is the era of women making informed choices and we aim to empower you to make choices that are right for you and and your baby.
Healthy Eating
Healthy eating before, during and after pregnancy can really make a difference to you and your babies wellbeing. Follow simple advice on what to avoid, but more importantly what to enjoy in your pregnancy.
