About

The Things You Didn't Know You Wanted to Know about Pregnancy and the Postpartum Period. This series dives beyond the blood tests and ultrasounds into the information you really want to maximise your health during pregnancy and your outcome after your birth.

This is a 4 part closed series, meaning you get 4 amazing opportunities to get to know your peers and learn from Leonie Mills Physio via informative and evidence based education sessions. The closed series means you will meet the same participants each fortnight and allow you to form long lasting bonds as these ladies become your biggest supporters as you enter motherhood. These 4 sessions are for women only, however there is a BONUS 5th session on offer where partners are welcome and encouraged to attend.

Eligible attendees must be pregnant and it's recommended they are 28 weeks pregnant or less at the first session to make the most of the series.
