Healthy eating
A nutritious, balanced and varied diet contributes significantly to good health. A balanced, good diet is especially important if you’re planning a pregnancy as your baby relies on you to provide the right balance of nutrients to help them grow and develop properly (even after they’re born).

🌟Baby summer safety when out and about🌟

Use these tips from The Lullaby Trust to keep your baby safe and comfortable while you’re out and about.

❌Don’t cover prams, buggies and travel systems with blankets, cloths or any cover that stops the air flowing. They risk the baby getting too hot, and mean you can’t see if they’re having difficulties or monitor their temperature as easily.

☂️Top tip – use a clip-on sunshade or parasol. This will keep your baby shaded while allowing air to circulate, and give you a clear view of your baby.

👶Check your baby regularly to see if they’re getting too hot by feeling their chest or the back of their neck.

☀️Keep babies out of direct sunlight as much as possible.

The more active you are during your pregnancy the easier you will find it to adjust to the naturally occurring changes in pregnancy including a change in shape and weight gain. It will also help you to cope with labour and get back into shape after your baby is born. If exercising with an instructor let them know are pregnant. If you are new to exercising start slowly and build up gradually.

A gradual return to exercise after birth is recommended but it should not involve high-impact exercises or sit-ups too quickly, to allow your stomach and pelvic floor muscles to recover.

The Solihull Approach have a new FREE online course on ‘Understanding your own trauma’. Research shows that by making sense of traumatic events, people can process them and effectively manage triggers. This course is designed to support a better understanding of trauma and it will guide your personal journey – everyone’s experience of trauma is different and finding the right way to process and manage your experience is personal.
