Mum & Me Magazine

Mum & Me magazine will promote breastfeeding and gentle parenting in a subtle manner by providing positive role models and images and ensuring information is easily accessible to new mums, yet will be in the format of a mainstream, high street magazine. The magazine was founded to normalise breastfeeding within the media and to provide non-judgemental, non-intrusive, breastfeeding support. Peer support groups will have an opportunity to earn money with further distribution of the magazine. See the Funds for Groups page.

Articles in the magazine will have broad appeal to new mums, birth stories, newborn skin care, bonding with your baby, hints & tips for new dads, celebrity mums, post natal depression etc.

Mum & Me magazine will be distributed to expectant mums free of charge via NHS ante natal clinics. The magazine will be funded by using advertising that will comply with the WHO Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes.  

Mothers' Peer Support groups will be able to generate revenue for themselves by further distribution of the magazine. This unique fund-raising opportunity is loosely based on the model of The Big Issue. See the Funds for Groups page.

If you have any exciting, positive birth and early parenting stories, please send us an email, with pictures if possible, and we will consider them for publication. We are also currently looking for stories from mums who have survived ante and post natal illness. We want you to be able to share your experiences as a new mum with other mums-to-be, in your own words. All articles to be used will be discussed with their authors prior to publication. We are unable to pay for your stories at this moment in time. For further details, go to Submit Articles.
