What some of our mums say who we have supported over the Years:-
Diane say's
"You were amazing whilst I was in hospital, if you weren't on hand with advice I don't know where we would be.I dread to think. Callan is here without a doubt because of Little Heartbeats"
Ella P say's
"We could have made the biggest mistake of our lives if we hadn't come across this group. We were strongly recommended to terminate at 20 weeks and went away feeling like this was our only option. We found hope in what seemed like a hopeless situation and decided to continue with the pregnancy. We now have our beautiful, healthy little girl. Still in NICU but doing amazingly well! "
Lindsey R say's
"If it wasn’t for Ciara and Little Heartbeats, I never would have had the strength, courage and knowledge to continue with my pregnancy. There would have been many ‘what ifs’…you were on the other end of the chat within minutes when I needed you and I’ll never forget it."
