The majority of pregnant women (91%) do not feel they are given enough advice during pregnancy about postpartum recovery. Tens of thousands of women are also giving birth each year without a recovery plan in place. Those are the damning findings of a study conducted by the pre and postnatal care app MUTU System, shared exclusively with HuffPost UK.
A shocking 84% of respondents experienced some form of postpartum health issue – such as abdominal muscle separation or incontinence – but almost all respondents (89.1%) said they did not feel prepared in recovery methods.
Wen“The stall was also in a great location which included a lot of passers-by so many stopped by.
“My grandsons James, nine and Alistair, seven also helped out with the stall and it was lovely to see them interact with the local community in aid of Childhood Day.”
Sarah Laffling, NSPCC Fundraising Manager, said: “We are overwhelmed with the continuing efforts from Ely & District Committee and I would like to thank the suppliers and generous donators of Ely who supported this event. To follow this wonderful example, our upcoming Childhood Day on June 11 is the perfect opportunity to get involved and we’re asking everyone in the East of England to come together to play, raise money and help keep children safe.

In 1976 a small group of enthusiastic ladies formed a choir - The Isle Singers.
Singing is their joy and they meet every week to sing.
Some 44 years later, they are still singing, whatever the circumstances.
A few years after forming, the group found themselves singing in Sutton church to represent a church choir when Sutton church did not have one.
