🔔 new blog alert 🔔

It's so important to educate yourself, and understand your rights as you're looked after during your pregnancy, labour, birth and beyond. Whether it's a routine check or a major procedure, YOU decide what happens to your body. 💪💜

In our latest blog, we dive into the importance of informed consent and how healthcare providers must give you clear, unbiased information so you can make the best decisions for yourself and your baby. 📋✨

Key points to remember:

🤝 Your choice matters! Always ask questions and ensure you understand the options.

🚨 You can withdraw consent at any time. It's YOUR body, YOUR baby, YOUR decision.

💕 Even your birth partner can’t make decisions for you, but they can help advocate for your preferences.

👶Post-birth, both parents may share in decisions for your baby, but until then, it’s the pregnant person's choice.

Check out the full post and empower yourself with knowledge. 🔗 [Link in bio]

Who's going a #bonfirenight fireworks display this

Who's going a #bonfirenight fireworks display this weekend? Or maybe you've got your own display to set off in the garden?

We love bonfire night - a hot drink on a cold night (hopefully not raining) with a sparkler in hand, watching the bonfire go up and listening to the Ooos and Ahhs as the fireworks light up the sky!

It can be a magical time of year for little ones, but also a time A&E fills up with people suffering burn injuries. Keep your little one's safe...

RoSPA recommends:
💥 Supervise your children closely
💥 Not holding a baby and sparkler at the same time
💥 Avoid giving sparklers to under 5's
💥 Putting spent sparklers straight into a bucket of cold water

If someone does get a burn injury:
💥 Run the burn under cool water for 20 minutes
💥 Remove clothing from or around the burn
💥 Do not put any creams or ointments onto the burn
💥 Cover with clingfilm or a non-adhesive dressing (no fluffy bandages!)
💥 Call 111 for minor injuries and 999 for emergency assistance

👂One final thought, little babies and young children may not love the big bangs...ear defenders are a great investment, and can be used at festivals, big parties or sporting events for years to come.
