Now Recruiting Pregnant Mothers-to-Be

LJMU are interested in the outcomes for mothers and infants that are associated with different sleeping arrangements, for example, whether there are differences between mothers and infants who bed-share versus those who sleep separately, and how this relates to touch.

They will ask you to fill in online questionnaires at three time points - now, and again after your baby is born - in your own time, wherever you’re comfortable.
Each questionnaire will take about 25 minutes to complete. There is no obligation to take part.

If you are:

• A UK resident;
• In your third trimester;
• Between the ages of 18 and 45;
• Not carrying multiples (e.g., twins);
• Willing to provide an email address that you’ll be checking for the next year or so; and
• Willing to be contacted on that email address; then please contact the Study Team: NighttimeCaregiving@LJMU.ac.uk
