Your baby knows your voice, even before they enter the world. As the senses activate between 24-26 weeks of gestation, the tone of our own mothers’ voice is one of the very first things we experience as humans (second only to her heartbeat, most likely). And a whole host of…
Give yourself a hug! Toddlers are incredibly compassionate humans and will often comfort themselves with a self-hug or by cuddling one of their many stuffed animals. Adults can tap into this same simple, sensory approach to self-soothe: a hands-on, nurturing touch that says “I…
The British pediatrician D. W. Winnicott once wrote, “There’s no such thing as a baby. There is a baby and someone.” I’ve always loved the quote, because it so simply encapsulates our situation as the newest members of the human species: We enter the world with fine tuned powers…
My brave client was a young mother who suffered a fourth-degree tear which was mis-diagnosed - she was ignored dismissed and patronised whilst in the most terrible pain, bleeding heavily causing her serious physical and psychological harm. We settled against UH Sussex NHS FT.
Neonatal units are so single-minded in their mission to get breastmilk to NICU babies that they will even tell the cruel lie to mothers at their most vulnerable that breastfeeding will 'enhance bonding' with their hospitalised baby. Unconscionable in my view.

"Women were assessed but not given a “RAG” rating, and it was unclear which cases were clinical priorities. When there was a delay in a doctor reviewing a patient, staff said they had been told not to report this as a safety issue."

Terrible indictment of our times. A very ill mum died despite phoning an ambulance & her daughter with Downs died probably through starvation. They were not found for months. Not a tragic situation it's about the breakdown of our services & communities nottinghampost.com/news/nottingha…

And when the abusers are midwives? No-one will recognise it as misogyny but internalised misogyny is rife in #midwifery. Denying access to pain relief. Gaslighting women’s lived experience of pain. Denying access to medical interventions. Ideological abuse. #MaternityScandal

Age can impact how mothers are treated. This Birth Trauma Awareness week we are supporting @BirthTrauma to support the important message that mothers, no matter their age, have to be listened to. Read more here: tinyurl.com/4dwek7v8 #BTAW2025 @BoltBurdonKemp
Your baby understands language well before they can use it. 🧠 Watch this little one’s reaction when she hears the word “eat.” Her excitement is a good reminder that language development happens on two different planes simultaneously. Receptive language refers to what your…
The period from prenatal to three is the most uniquely consequential window in all of human development. It is during this period that the fundamental architecture of the brain is “wired” in ways that will serve to support - or hinder - your child’s longterm success in school…

The "Listen to Mums: Ending the Postcode Lottery on Perinatal Care" report makes it clear: Babies born in UK’s most deprived areas are twice as likely to be stillborn as those born in the least deprived areas. This is systemic inequality. @BirthTrauma

1/2 It’s Birth Trauma Awareness Week (14th-19 July) and we are supporting @BirthTrauma This is a vital moment to recognise the voices of women who’ve experienced trauma during birth. This year, the focus is on marginalised groups who face additional barriers in maternity care
On the Fesshole post. In East Kent, some midwives who were not part of a favoured in-group were sometimes assigned to the highest-risk mothers & challenged to achieve delivery with no intervention. So some keeping a degrading chart on women doesn't seem implausible to me.
