    There was an article written in last quarters MIDIRS by a fellow student midwife!

    I think there was also an article in BJM a few months back - let me look through my copies and will let you know when it was. If you want, I could scan it and email it to you, if you can't access the actual article online - will edit this once I've found it!

    ETA: Ok, it's in the June 2011 journal of BJM - Maternal obesity in pregnancy: Women's understanding of risks

    Like I said, if you can't access it anywhere, I can scan and email you a copy of the article.

    There was an article in BJM about 6 months ago called 'lets step away from the cake' very good article if you can get hold of it. I haven't got it i'm afraid as it was borrowed from a friend. x
