Pregnancy & Babies: Information Hub
Welcome to Parentline’s Pregnancy & Babies hub, a caring space for expectant parents and those navigating their child’s early years (0–3).
Whether you’re wondering why babies cry, how to help them sleep, or when they’ll reach their first milestones, we have compassionate support, grounded in evidence.
You’ll also find support on feeding choices, managing postnatal emotions, and even coping with loss.
Sometimes you just need someone to listen; other times you need practical guidance. We’re here for both.
Call 1300 30 1300, chat with us online, or explore our articles below.
