The Tommy’s and Bounty Five Point Pregnancy Plan

The Tommy\’s & Bounty Five Point Pregnancy Plan

Lifestyle can have a big impact on pregnancy health and the future health of our children.

We have a much better understanding today of the link between lifestyle and pregnancy health. Weight, diet and daily exercise, for example, can all have an impact on health during pregnancy and beyond - for both mum and baby.

Tommy’s has developed a new campaign in partnership with Bounty focusing on five key health messages that we want mums-to-be, their families and healthcare professionals to take on board.

We would like to ask you as a Bounty member to commit to one or more of the five pledges below to help give your baby the very best start in life.
