Wondering when your baby might arrive? ๐Ÿ‘ถ๐Ÿ’™

The NHS Due Date Calculator can give you an estimated due date based on the first day of your last menstrual period ๐Ÿ“…

While only a small number of babies arrive exactly on their due date, knowing your estimated due date can help you plan for appointments, prepare for your baby's arrival and understand your pregnancy timeline better ๐Ÿ‘

Your due date may be adjusted later based on your dating scan, which usually takes place between 10 and 14 weeks of pregnancy ๐Ÿฉบ

Remember, every pregnancy is different and babies can arrive before or after their estimated due date ๐Ÿ’ซ

If you think you may be pregnant or have questions about your pregnancy, speak to your midwife, GP or maternity team for support ๐Ÿ’™

As temperatures rise, it's important to know the signs of hyperthermia and heat-related illness โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ’™

Hyperthermia happens when your body becomes too hot and struggles to cool itself down. If left untreated, it can become serious and may require medical attention โš ๏ธ

Signs to watch for include:
โ€ข Dizziness or feeling light-headed ๐Ÿ˜ต
โ€ข Muscle cramps ๐Ÿ’ช
โ€ข Swollen feet or ankles ๐Ÿ‘ฃ
โ€ข Feeling sick, weak or unusually tired ๐Ÿค’
โ€ข A rapid pulse or fast heartbeat โค๏ธ

You can help reduce your risk by:
โ€ข Drinking plenty of water throughout the day ๐Ÿ’ง
โ€ข Staying in the shade where possible ๐ŸŒณ
โ€ข Avoiding strenuous activity during the hottest parts of the day โ˜€๏ธ
โ€ข Wearing loose, light-coloured clothing ๐Ÿ‘•
โ€ข Checking on older relatives, neighbours and vulnerable people ๐Ÿ‘ฅ

Babies, young children, older adults and people with long-term health conditions can be particularly vulnerable during hot weather ๐ŸŒก๏ธ

If symptoms become severe, worsen, or do not improve, seek medical advice promptly ๐Ÿฉบ๐Ÿ’™

Ever wondered how many calories your body uses just to keep you alive? ๐Ÿ’™

Your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is the number of calories your body needs each day to carry out basic functions such as breathing, circulating blood, regulating temperature and supporting your organs ๐Ÿซ€๐Ÿซ

Knowing your BMR can help you better understand your energy needs and can be useful if you're looking to manage your weight, improve your fitness or make healthier lifestyle choices ๐Ÿ‘

Your BMR is influenced by factors such as:
โ€ข age
โ€ข s*x
โ€ข height and weight
โ€ข muscle mass
โ€ข overall health ๐Ÿƒ

While BMR is only one part of the picture, understanding it can help you make more informed decisions about your nutrition and activity levels ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฅ—

Use the Patient Info BMR Calculator to find out more about your body's energy needs ๐Ÿ’ซ

August is National Immunisation Awareness Month, a great opportunity to learn more about the vaccines that help protect children from serious illnesses ๐Ÿ’‰๐Ÿ’™

Vaccinations are one of the most effective ways to protect against infectious diseases and help keep our communities healthy ๐Ÿ‘

The MMRV vaccine protects children against four illnesses:
โ€ข Measles
โ€ข Mumps
โ€ข Rubella
โ€ข Varicella (chickenpox) ๐Ÿ‘ถ

These illnesses can sometimes lead to serious complications, including pneumonia, meningitis and other health problems โš ๏ธ

The MMRV vaccine is offered as part of the NHS routine childhood vaccination programme and helps provide important protection during early childhood ๐Ÿ’™

Making sure your child receives their vaccinations on time helps protect them and those around them ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ

If you're unsure whether your child is up to date with their vaccinations, speak to your GP practice for advice ๐Ÿ‘

Living with Crohnโ€™s or Colitis can affect much more than just your gut ๐Ÿ’œ

These lifelong conditions can impact work, education, relationships, and mental wellbeing โ€“ even when symptoms arenโ€™t visible ๐Ÿ’ฌ

Around 1 in 120 people in the UK are living with Crohnโ€™s or Colitis, yet many people still donโ€™t fully understand the reality of these conditions ๐Ÿค

By raising awareness, we can help reduce stigma and support those living with invisible illnesses
