Antenatal Leaflet Plan

I will make sure that the writing is not too small and I will also make the font simple and easy to read. I will also try not to put in too much writing which may even put the mother off reading the leaflet.

The type of information which I will put inside the leaflet will be about and give advice on:

• Smoking
• Clothing and footwear
• Diet
• Medicines and drugs
• Hygiene
• Rest and exercise
• Benefits

I will try to make the leaflet look eye-catching by using pictures and animation. On the front of the leaflet I will put a photo of a young mother with a baby and throughout the leaflet I will include pictures of pregnant mothers so that the young mother feels as comfortable as possible with how she looks and so she knows she looks normal for someone who is pregnant.

The information and pictures which I will put into my leaflet will be from:

• Internet as there is a large variety of information and it is easy to access.
• Text books as I know it’s all accurate
• From other antenatal leaflets as I know there is a large variety
• Parents who have has children as they have had experience
• And lastly magazines as they have a lot if information inside them.

When I have finished I will design 5 questionnaires and give them to different people who have had children and who haven’t and the leaflets will help me evaluate my leaflet.

My plan of action is:

• Collect information from different sources
• Select relevant information which is needed for leaflet
• Make leaflet using information I have selected
• Evaluate leaflet using questionnaires
• Hand in my finished leaflet by the deadline.
