HAVING a baby is one of life’s most unforgettable experiences.
Going into hospital, or giving birth at home, and suddenly having another addition to your family is exciting, while a little scary.
Over the past few months giving birth hasn’t been as straightforward as in the past. Relatives, including partners in some cases, have not been allowed to visit, and once home it has been hard to socialise with other parents.
We would like to hear about your experiences. Please let us know how child birth was for you, and how being a parent has changed your life.
Fill in the form below and send it back, with a photo. That’s all there is to it.

The past year has been challenging for us all, but there have been moments of joy. Some have added new members to their family, with the birth of a baby. We would love you to share your news with us using this form.
