In pregnant women with symptoms of COVID-19, it is twice as likely that their baby will be born early, exposing the baby to the risk of prematurity. Watch this video to find out how COVID-19 can impact pregnancy and what our current advice is. @ProfAsmaKhalil

Last but by no means least, also from @DGNHS, a children’s nurse, advocating for children and families in Dumfries and Galloway and driving the community children's nurse service forward to ensure it is fit for the future - Sally Walton @SallyBell2 @AliceWilson771 #QNISawards

A few weeks ago, my friend @sarahklong messaged @oxtedladiesrun WhatsApp group asking for tips on getting a breastfeeding baby on to a bottle, as she wasn’t allowed to take her little one to Chelsea flower show. We provided some tips but also came back with a challenge. 1/5

If you are feeling overwhelmed being able to ground yourself can help.
It allows you to be present in the moment and relieve the overwhelming anxiety

We want to reassure women that although the COVID-19 vaccines offered to people who are pregnant – Pfizer and Moderna - are relatively new, they are not ‘live’ vaccines and they cannot cause infection. Watch this video to hear from @ProfAsmaKhalil.

Today was a good day! Enjoyed working with the Midwives on Coral Ward. It was lovely meeting and greeting a few families on the ward and hearing their birth stories 😊
