We run a free community support group for pregnancy, birth and beyond. This group is a community of local pregnant folks, parents and birth professionals. We share positive stories and support women in birth in a positive way - helping them to have a positive birth and parenting journey.


The purpose of the group is to link with others locally - both virtually and in person through our facebook group, and our local meet ups - to share information, articles, knowledge and birth stories that help to inspire and support local pregnant folks in a positive way.


We have regular meet ups at Joy Connection, a new family-focused cafe and creative hub on Angel Hill in Bury St Edmunds. 


Starting on Wednesday 8th November 2023 our meet ups will be every other week on a Wednesday from 10.00 to 12.00 midday in the cafe at Joy Connection.


PLUS most weeks we will have a guest appearance from a local pregnancy, birth or baby professional!


We are often found chatting about topics such as your options during labour, pros and cons of home birth, measuring the size of your baby, how to have a positive induction, natural pain relief techniques, decision making re cesareans, etc. 


We would love to meet you at our group, whether you are 4 weeks or 40 weeks pregnant, a mum with a positive birth story, first time or fifth time pregnant, or a birth partner... EVERYONE (including your toddler!) is welcome!


Please link into our Facebook Group too, we share lots of info around your pregnancy and birth choices, who our guest will be at our next meet up and friendly reminders of when we are meeting.


And so that we can keep an eye on the numbers attending we would appreciate all attendees to book onto the meet up via the following link, you can check the dates of the next meet up too:
