Full Description
If you are pregnant and neurodivergent, you may need specific support to ensure you have a positive experience of pregnancy, birth and the journey into parenthood, aligned with key themes including sensory processing, communication, executive functioning and mental health.
These support needs are currently poorly understood in perinatal healthcare settings. Why Neurodivergent Birth Matters aims to promote awareness and understanding of neurodivergent perinatal experiences, and to offer practical suggestions to improve perinatal care. It is both a guide for birth professionals, and a validating and compassionate companion for neurodivergent parents-to-be and new families.
