Preparing To Welcome
Your Baby Home

Parenting expert and author Lucy Atkins offers advice to future parents

Nine months worth of various aches and pains, bizarre cravings, morning sickness and an ever expanding stomach have finally come to an end and a new member of the family has now finally arrived.

It’s amazing to see, despite months of planning; how ill prepared some new parents are for the arrival of their little bundle of joy. Many aren’t aware of the implications of having a little person join their family at all and have no real understanding of the basic do’s and don’ts.

One person willing to share all her knowledge is Lucy Atkins, mother of 3 and author of ‘First Time Parent’. Lucy has teamed up with the Fairy Godmothers, a panel of mothers and soon-to-be mothers who are offering advice and guidance into the first few months of motherhood.

In the first of 3 podcasts Lucy and the Fairy Godmothers are discussing preparing to welcome baby home. This instalment offers advice on everything from essential clothes to preparing the perfect nursery environment.

Her bestselling book ‘The Beauty Myth’ demonstrated how the cultural ideal of beauty, expounded by all areas of the media, is used to control women.
