We have created this booklet to highlight a number of key topics for women with SCI (spinal cord injury) and their families to consider during the perinatal period, defined as the time before conceiving (pre-conception), pregnancy, labour, delivery and postpartum (the first few days and weeks after a baby is born).
The topics covered in this guide are designed as a place to start the conversation with your health care providers as part of planning for your care.
