— -> The science of the microbiome supports expectant mothers being microbiome-mindful during pregnancy, plus vaginal birth (when possible), immediate skin-to-skin and exclusive breastfeeding.

— -> This ensures the optimal training of the infant immune system for the best possible long-term health.

— -> If midwives, doulas, childbirth educators and others can explain the science of the microbiome to expectant parents — very simply…

— -> Expectant parents could make diet and lifestyle choices which can influence their their own microbiome, and in turn, their child’s microbiome for the best possible long-term health

— -> Parent demand for more microbiome-mindful maternity care could be the driver to help transform global healthcare

— -> The happy by-product would be better long-term health for our children
