Gift of Life

This season we found out more about egg donation and what it entails as one couple shared their fascinating story. "After three years of hormone treatments and hospital visits, it shouldn’t have been a surprise when we were told that we would need IVF to have a baby. I was my ideal weight, a non-smoker and virtually tee-total. My husband was a normal, healthy man. Infertility wasn’t meant to happen to us."

Taste Matters

As part of a unique campaign to promote tasty baby food, frozen baby food manufacturer, Babylicious,asked a group of mums with babies under one year if they think taste matters, and if so, why? The mums’ response was interesting because while they understood the importance of good nutrition, safe feeding and balanced meals, amongst the advice they had recieved, no one had explained how important taste is when it comes to feeding your baby.
