The miracle of birth starts at conception, nature has created a series of events that are fully explained in these pages. Starting with the release of your egg: ovulation, then fertilisation, and completing the cycle with the embedding of the egg in your womb. Discover how you can influence the sex of your baby, and the importance of folic acid in the reduction of risk of spina bifida.
