Welcome to The Pregnancy Centre newsletter

Before, during and after pregnancy there are many preparations and planning of things that need attention. Often mums can feel that there is a lot going on, and physically and emotionally there are challenges along the way. Some of these are positive, some more neutral while others can have a negative effect. This newsletter brings an opportunity to reflect on post birth changes, with a survey created by Sydney based Personal Trainer, Jen Dugard. We revisit "An Invitation to Grieve" e-course, and add in some stretches to help pregnant mums feel more flexible. All the best for the last few days of October. Spring came along at last!!!
