The BUMP&CO. bi-weekly newsletter for pregnant and new parents in Hong Kong
📚 STORIES BUILD COMMUNITIES
Stories have an unparalleled ability to connect us, offering a bridge between individual experiences and collective understanding. In the realm of birth, storytelling becomes a powerful tool for fostering community, sharing wisdom, and supporting one another through one of life’s most transformative experiences.
Session 3 of the BUMP&CO. antenatal programme brings together the birth stories of HK mums and dads to pass on top tips for navigating HK hospitals and to further enhance understanding of the birth process in a real world setting. It is a safe space to ask questions, build support networks and feel more empowered about labour & delivery.
We are looking for more parents to share their stories in our in person sessions so please whatsapp Faye if you or your partner would be willing to share birth stories to support expectant parents in their parenthood journey.
We will also be looking for parents to share their stories on instagram! Keep an eye out for more information.
