Pregnancy and Parenting with Narcolepsy

Description

In this group, women with narcolepsy are offered support through pregnancy and parenting young children. Our expert facilitators, Sara and Emily both have narcolepsy and have experienced pregnancy, childbirth, breast feeding and raising young children. The meetings allow participants to ask questions and share experiences related to all aspects of this particularly challenging time of life.
