About Hear Her First
Created by a mother whose baby spent his first month in neonatal care after a traumatic birth.
The free UK support tool she wishes she and her husband had been able to open when fear took over, answers felt unclear and the words were hard to find.
Why it exists
For the moments when something does not feel right.
Hear Her First helps mothers and birth partners find calm, practical wording during pregnancy, labour, birth, neonatal care, postnatal recovery and after a difficult birth.
It helps you ask clearer questions, explain what has changed, keep track of what you have been told and ask again when you still do not feel reassured.

- 1What has changed?
- 2What are you checking for?
