Informed Pregnancy, Birth & Beyond - Portsmouth and Fareham

Informed Pregnancy, Birth & Beyond - Portsmouth and Fareham Informed Pregnancy, Birth, & Beyond: A local, volunteer-run, community organisation.

We provide peer support groups, educational events for professionals, and community events to bring professionals and families together. We believe that a positive experience of pregnancy, birth and beyond is rooted in creating a community in which families and the health professionals and birth workers who support them can have open, informative and mutually beneficial relationships.

Coming up this Friday, 11th September, our Portsmouth meetup at MAKE cafe where we get together to chat all things pregnancy, birth and beyond.

Our in-person meet-ups are very informal and free to attend.

Our team can usually be spotted in teal t-shirts with our logo or by the pile of pregnancy, birth and parenting books in the middle of the table.

There’s no time too soon or too late to start coming along. You can come alone or bring anyone you like with you. You don’t have to arrive at the start or stay the whole time just drop in when it works for you.

You don’t have to ask anything just come and enjoy some company but if you want to you can ask anything, there’s no such thing as a stupid question or something that’s too embarrassing.

We’re just as happy to talk about feelings that feel overwhelming, making birth choices, vagina-related topics, the contents of babies’ nappies or anything in-between.

Next month (Friday 7th August) will be our annual summer picnic. This year we’re meeting at Portchester Castle between 10am and 12pm.

If it’s too rainy or windy we will divert to the café in the chapel so look out for social media posts on the day or message us if you want to be sure.

As with our meet-ups our summer picnic is for anyone who wants to join us and chat about anything pregnancy, birth, postnatal or family life-related. Bring your own snacks, drinks, lunch etc.
