Question 1

When can I join?

Accepted Answer

You can join anytime in the first 3m of your baby's life but  we recommend joining in late pregnancy so that you can come and get to know us and the venue.  It makes it so much easier to attend with your little one after birth when you're going somewhere familiar.  It also means we can support you with any issues that may crop up as you approach birth and also support you immediately after birth - especially if there are any feeding complications early on like baby not latching or needing to find quick assessment of possible Tongue Tie.  We offer a pregnancy discount. Just ask. 
After birth, please attend in person as soon as you feel ready.  We will be supporting you in the WhatsApp group and you can zoom with us too if you don't feel up to attending in person on any given day.

Question 2

What do you do at Newborn Support?

Accepted Answer

This is a relaxing and ideal first class with baby.  Seated comfortably on sofas with tea and toast served - it's often the first thing Mamas have eaten that day! I (Liz) am on hand to talk to you about how it's going.  Feeding and sleeping are often the topics of coversation - and I can help you access further support if needed.  But I can advise on postnatal recovery issues too including checking for Diastasis Recti.  Depending on who is there on the day I'll sometimes offer lap based Baby Yoga or Baby Massage suitable for newborns too.

Question 3

Can I join anytime?

Accepted Answer

Yes, this is a rolling class which only stops for 1 week in July and 2 weeks at Christmas.  Otherwise we're here all the time cos newborn Mamas need support ALL the time  : ).  After your trial class Newborn Mum Club is accessed via the BellyTots Membership.

Question 4

Can I bring a supporter with me?

Accepted Answer

This is sometimes possible and just depends on space. It would be better for the supporter to be female, as many very personal issues are discussed that women may find hard to discuss in front of a man. We are keen for you to feel as comfortable as possible. So do ask us about this.
