Having friends who are going through the same things as you can be a tremendous support, particularly if your partner and other friends are at work in the day.
Antenatal classes
- These are a great way to meet other mums-to-be in your area, as well as learning about birth and looking after your baby
- Some are for women only; others are also open to partners/friends
- You can find out about parentcraft and antenatal classes in your area from your midwife, health visitor, local children’s centre and local hospital
