AMY'S STORY
KIEARA'S STORY
At age 19, Amy found out she was pregnant. A determined young woman, Amy was not prepared to let the opinions of others stop her from being the best mum she could be.
EXPERT TALK: EMMA HONEY
Emma is a mum, a personal trainer, and massage therapist for pregnant and postpartum women and those undergoing IVF conception.
Emma’s experience has exposed her to the destructive effects of unrealistic body image and beauty standards that have been imposed on young mums by social media.
In our chat we discuss these issues, as well as the importance of exercise and relaxation during pregnancy.
Kieara always knew she wanted to be a mum, and that wish came true for her at age 21. However, Kieara's pregnancy became life-threatening when she was diagnosed with Pre-Eclampsia and endured a life threatening ordeal.
