Take the Paperwork out of Pregnancy
By Bounty Parenting Club, PRNESunday, March 28, 2010
Bounty.com Launches Free Online Organiser
LONDON, March 29, 2010 - New mums often tell you that having a baby is as much an
exercise in paperwork and organisation skills as it is joyous journey and
whilst the jury is out on whether mums get 'baby brain', according to Bounty
Parenting Club, almost half of mums (44%) admit to forgetting dentist, doctor
and midwife appointments and a third forget important family birthdays.
To manage the piles of pregnancy paperwork and make family
life easier, parenting website Bounty.com is offering new and expectant mums
a free online organiser service, so if you want to get your head around
parenthood go to: www.bounty.com/organiser where in a quick click you
can:
- Drop in your baby's due date and ages of your children and the
organiser will automatically fill itself in with other 'need-to-know'
dates such as: when to give your MAT B1 form to your employer, the
earliest date you can start maternity leave, and when to apply for free
prescriptions and dental treatment, the Health in Pregnancy Grant and
Child Benefit
- Add midwife appointments, scan dates and antenatal classes
and select to receive email reminders either two weeks, a week or a day
before - and the same goes for any event including birthdays, so you
can plan to buy a present and post a card in good time!
- To save typing you can drag and drop into the calendar from
a menu of everyday events like immunisations and swimming lessons to
family days out
- Key events are also automatically linked to printable
checklists. For example, as your baby's due date gets near the
organiser will flag a checklist for 'What to pack in your hospital
bag'. There are also checklists for events like 'Getting ready for
weaning' and 'Organising birthday parties' so making family life easier
really is a piece of cake!
