Hoping to conceive at 40+? Many do. Fertility does decline with age, so a plan helps.

Start with a pre-conception check: medicines, vaccinations, and long-term conditions. Take recommended pre-pregnancy vitamins, look after sleep, movement, and nutrition, and limit alcohol; smoking and va**ng reduce chances.

Try for up to six months, then seek advice if not pregnant, or sooner if periods are irregular or you have concerns. Support and options exist; step by step is okay.

Trying to conceive can feel deeply personal. One moment it’s joyful and full of hope; the next, test results can make everything feel stressful.

Menopause is more than hot flushes.

Think sleep swings, brain fog, joint aches, heart flutters, tinnitus changes, tingling skin or “skin crawling,” burning mouth, vaginal dryness and pesky UTIs.

Not everyone gets these; you are not imagining it if you do.

Track what you notice, bring notes to your women's health GP or gynaecologist, and ask about options that suit your health and preferences.

Trying to conceive? Timing helps, pressure doesn’t.
Your fertile window is the five days before ovulation plus ovulation day. S***m can wait around for a few days; the egg is choosy and short-lived.

Clues to watch: stretchy, “egg-white” cervical mucus; ovulation predictor kits; regular cycle patterns. Aim for relaxed intimacy every two to three days, or the day or two before your usual ovulation.

If you’re pregnant and confused about alcohol, you’re not alone.

Here’s the simple truth; there’s no known safe amount of alcohol in pregnancy, so the safest choice is not to drink.

Alcohol crosses the placenta, and even small amounts can affect a developing baby in ways we can’t predict.

That can feel disappointing or tricky in social situations; it’s okay to say so.

Try alcohol-free options, plan a supportive response for friends, and ask your partner or family to back you up.

If you’ve had alcohol before you knew you were pregnant, don’t panic; speak with our midwife or anyone in the JOGG care team.

Cravings can be strong, and they are common. Hormones, broken sleep, and nausea all play a part.

Start by checking in with hunger and thirst; a small balanced snack can steady energy. Pair carbs with protein or fibre, like toast with cheese, yoghurt with fruit, or crackers with hummus.

Keep safe food handling, avoid high mercury fish and unpasteurised foods.

If heartburn bites, smaller meals and extra fluids can help.

Living with gestational diabetes or allergies? Ask your care team for tailored options.

If your baby is born early, you are not alone.

Premature means before 37 weeks, and it can feel frightening or out of control.

Your baby may need special care in the neonatal unit; this supports breathing, feeding, and warmth while they grow.

You still matter hugely. Skin-to-skin cuddles, expressing milk, and reading or singing help bonding and development.

Ask questions, write things down, and take breaks, you need rest too.

It is okay to feel mixed emotions; support from your care team, family, and peer groups can help.

Watch for your own mood and sleep, and reach out if you are struggling. When you are ready, we can plan follow up and gentle next steps together.
