Wellbeing
Parents in Wheelchairs
When I was pregnant, I was concerned about how I would cope being a Mum with a spinal injury. There didn't seem to be much information or accounts of how other Mums have coped. Even after Sarah was born, I found it hard to imagine being able to manage once she was heavier/more mobile etc
I have created this website to share my experiences with other people and hope that parents (or those considering becoming parents) with a disability will find it useful and/or interesting.
