This evening a pregnant mum is coming to Optimum Corner, for a bra fitting. It will be her second fitting here, as she had one with when pregnant with her previous baby.

And tomorrow evening the topic for Optimum Bumps is hospital bags. What should you pack in your hospital bag? Can you take more than one bag? Do you really need disposable knickers? What should you take in the way of snacks? Will you need cash? Should you take my own birth ball? Or your own pillows? What toiletries should you take?

Even if you're planning a home birth, it's a good idea to have all your 'birthy stuff' kept in one easy to access place.
Although the sessions are free to attend, you do need to book your place, as spaces are limited.
