Pregnancy

Pregnancy is an exciting time for a woman and her family. It can also be a difficult and challenging time. A pregnant woman and her partner have many decisions to make. They also have lots of expectations and probably at least a few fears.

Women's Health Matters has developed a Pregnancy Health Centre to give women and their families information about:

• becoming pregnant
• planning for a baby
• staying healthy during pregnancy
• labour and childbirth
• life with a newborn
• breast-feeding

Sometimes a pregnancy is not planned. You may be unsure about how a child would fit into your life. To help you think thorugh the issues involved, read our page on Decision Making About Unplanned Pregnancy.
