It is recommended all pregnant women take 10 micrograms of vitamin D a day, as it can help reduce the risk of respiratory infections and keep your bones and muscles healthy.

Not only do pregnant women have to labour partially alone and be without partners after birth, I am now fighting every day to get my stat maternity pay that is over 3 month delayed. When will women’s maternity rights be prioritised. #covidmaternity #ButNotMaternity

New guidance from RoyalCollegeObsGyn Royal College of Midwives 💙 NHS England on partners in maternity services out today. Practical advice welcome and good to see service user involvement encouraged but some way short of proactive encouragement... bit.ly/2DGcR8p #ButNotMaternity

It's Birth Trauma Awareness Week. Did you know as many as 200,000 more women may feel traumatised by childbirth and develop some of the symptoms of PTSD? @birth trauma #journeyfrombirthtrauma #BTAW2020

We welcome the framework for reintroducing access for partners and visitors to antenatal and postnatal appointments, including pregnancy scans. This is a positive step for the health and wellbeing of pregnant women and will provide much-needed clarity for maternity staff.

Why are we celebrating pubs re-opening, when women around the country can’t have their Partners support in maternity hospitals? It’s a joke!! Speaking from experience, those solo walks through the hospital doors will stay with me forever! #ButNotMaternity

recall meeting a woman 4 hours post birth showing signs of #trauma - I went to the registrar to discuss reply was “WHAT ? It was a straightforward forceps delivery” Do not become complacent about the way you practice just because you do it each day #NHS #birthtraumaawarenessweek

Thank you to Mail on Sunday & Anna Mikhailova for launching this campaign following my letter with 60 Conservative colleagues calling for all NHS Trusts to immediately update guidelines to ensure no pregnant woman gives birth, or attends scans, alone. @PregnantScrewed Make Birth Better

⚠️Trigger warning⚠️When it comes to maternity, there are usually two people deeply involved and they should have the choice to go through the pregnancy together, every step of the way, especially through loss. #ButNotMaternity #covidbabies #birthrights #enough

"As breast-feeding reduces maternal risk for breast cancer, ovarian cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease — in addition to benefitting infant health — support for this practice must remain a public health priority, even during the global pandemic." jwatch.org/na52290/2020/0…
