Cuidiú operates an Experience Register which is a list of parents who have or had a particular experience(s) and are willing to talk and share with others about them.  Being able to talk about concerns with others in the same situation as you can be helpful and every enquiry is handled in a sensitive and strictly confidential manner.  Isolation, whether emotional or physical, can be a difficult aspect of parenthood, so why not talk to someone who has a shared experience. The list below outlines some of the areas included in the experience register. If you would like to be put in touch with someone regarding an issue that is affecting you and your family, please make contact with your nearest parenthood supporter or the Experience Register Co-Ordinator Jenny Garvey.  This is not a substitute for medical advice.
