The Madmums Buddy Scheme has been designed to put you in touch with other Mums who have experience in specific areas of Pregnancy and Parenting. You can use this free and confidential service on a "one to one" basis away from the forums to get in touch with one of our Buddies who will then contact you personally. These areas are:
  • Breastfeeding
  • Caesarean Section
  • Education
  • Miscarriage
  • Post Natal Depression and Depression
  • Pregnancy
  • Single Parenting
  • SPD (Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction)
  • TTC (Trying to Conceive)
Our Buddies have all been carefully selected and each one has experience in the area that they are assigned to, and are happy to give friendly advice based on their own experience as Mums.
