Pregnancy Support + Bumps & Babies

 Free community support groups at Joy Connection, Bury St Edmunds

We run regular free community support groups for pregnancy, birth and beyond. Our meet ups are a community of local pregnant folks and birth partners, parents, babies and birth professionals.

At Pregnancy Support Group 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.

Our Pregnancy Support group meet ups are every month on a Wednesday from 10.00 to 11.30 in the cafe at Joy Connection - check the Joy Connection website for dates.

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. 

At our free Bumps and Babies meet up we also welcome anyone who wishes to come along, whether you're expecting or have a baby in arms we love chatting about the ups and downs of pregnancy and parenting and caring for your baby, plus it's great to connect with other like minded parents and parents-to-be.   

We meet monthly for Bumps and Babies, on a Saturday morning at Joy Connection - check out the Joy Connection website for dates and to book in for free (so we can keep an eye on numbers as it can get busy!)

We would love to meet you at one of our Pregnancy Support or Bumps and Babies meet ups, whether you are 4 weeks or 40 weeks pregnant, a mum with a positive birth story, first time or fifth time pregnant, a birth partner, new mum or experienced mum... EVERYONE (including your toddler!) is welcome!

Please link into our Facebook Group too, we share lots of info around your pregnancy and birth choices and friendly reminders of when we are meeting.
