Ribbons keeping babies safe in pregnancy

Expectant mums across Renfrewshire are being shown a simple, yet powerful initiative designed to support the monitoring of a baby's movements during pregnancy.

- 

Women will be provided with Nurture Ribbons. Funded by Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity, the ribbons serve as a gentle, visible reminder for mums-to-be to stay aware of their baby’s movements -an important sign of their wellbeing.

Nurture Ribbons are now being handed out to women between 22 and 24 weeks of pregnancy. Each ribbon has a contact number printed on it and the message: “I love to jump around despite being small. If my movements slow or change, don't delay, give Triage a call.”
