Wakefield Museums and Castles

Explore our special online exhibition from year one of BaBi Wakefield.

We worked with four local families to record and share their experience of having and raising a baby in Wakefield.

Meet the families and the midwives and charities who supported them.

Hear from the women in their own words. Follow the babies’ milestones from birth to their first steps and words.

Please note - some of the mothers discuss the following themes:

• Anxiety and mental health (Isabelle and Marco)

• Potential pregnancy complications with twins (Malvika and Mishka)

• Difficulties with IVF and conceiving (Bex and Lucy)
