The @EveryWomanFest_ this weekend was absolutely amazing. Inspiring, empowering, educational. Centring women’s health in a fun, inclusive - but powerful - way. If you didn’t make it this year - do come next year! #everywoman23

Chuffed to have this piece in @HuffPostUK today. Postnatal recovery takes more than a year and we need better care. RT if you agree

Yesterdays Black maternal health APPG in parliament was a success! We heard from various people across maternity services on the updates and progress that has been made in the maternity world that have a positive affect for Black women #bmhaw23 #bmhaw23appg #fivexmore
This needs to change, which is why @motherbodies and I are campaigning for an additional maternal check within the first year postpartum. Would love to hear your thoughts. #postnatal #MaternalHealth

The brand new series of @motherbodies podcast is kicking off with an episode focused on getting your sex life back after birth - what's "normal" and why can it feel so hard to be a "good mum" and a "sexy partner"? Check it out here: pod.fo/e/17148a
I wrote a piece on how important it is to plan for your postpartum recovery - as well as the birth. Let me know your thoughts? #pregnancy #birth #postpartum #postnatal #doulas #midwives #WomenSupportingWomen metro.co.uk/2023/04/02/its-n…

It’s #WorldBookDay - here’s a snippet of me talking about my book ‘Your Postnatal Body’ - published by @pinterandmartin last year. #postnatal

The @motherbodies and @pelvicuprising campaign calling for mums to have a proper 2nd health check in the year after birth - not just the 6-week check - has had some fab coverage on @bbcsoutheast. So brilliant to see topics like #pnd and incontinence getting mainstream coverage.

Just me, talking on BBC news last night regarding an additional maternal check for new mothers! #postnatalhealth #yourpostnatalbody #maternalhealth
‘Be kind’ we say ‘It’s ok not to be OK’ we say. Then we hate on and vilify and bully a woman until she’s on the brink. A pregnant woman thinking of taking her own life to put a stop to the abuse. When will we learn? 💔 #HarryandMeganNetflix #BeKindAlways

Please do check out this article and let us know your thoughts. #maternity #maternalhealth #postpartum #postnatal
Quoted in the @MoS_Health today. A 9-12 month maternal check (in addition to the 6-8 week check!) could make an enormous difference to long term health outcomes for women. Let’s get serious about #womenshealth and #preventativecare #maternalhealth #maternity #postnatal
Doing an Insta Live on all things #postpartum tonight. So, if that’s your thing - head over to (@) postnatalhealthcommunity on Instagram for the details.

I’ve thought about this overnight and it’s clear that a lot of people are finding it very difficult to watch Matt Hancock on #ImACeleb
If he really wants to show viewers the human side of politicians, maybe he could leave the show & donate his £400,000 to the NHS.

@ThePOGP, @pelvicroar, @pelvicuprising, @mummymot, @WellHQ do you want to submit to this and highlight incontinence/prolapse as a common barrier to exercise?
Women and girls - we want to hear from you. What barriers have stopped you taking part in physical activity or sport?
Our inquiry wants to hear your voices.
