Just because it’s in your shopping cart, doesn’t mean it’s safe.

From infant self-feeding devices and baby walkers to balloon blowing kits - banned products can look innocent but pose real dangers and can cause serious injuries or worse.

Great information from Dr Strydom in Terrace about collecting colostrum before giving birth.

Have you heard about prenatal hand expression of colostrum?
Dr. Jacobus Strydom, a family doctor in Terrace, wants to spread the word! He routinely talks about this practice with his clients because it can help to get the body ready for labour and also get infant feeding off to a good start.
