Autistic Parents UK have collaborated with Dr. Aimee Grant from Swansea University, Autistic UK, MARG, Autistic Doctors UK and a truly remarkable group of Autistic parents and professionals on the "Autistic Pregnancy Birth and Beyond: your questions answered" project.
Together, we have produced over 100 insightful videos for Autistic parents and parents-to-be. These videos will be added to this page as they finish the editing process.

Alexis Quinn is an Autistic parent who experienced a mental health crisis due to a lack of support during her pregnancy, birth and early parenthood. In her book Autistic and Expecting, Alexis writes about her experience and the experiences of other Autistic parents. The book offers insight and practical support to Autistic parents and those who support them.
