The National Childbirth Trust (NCT) is a United Kingdom|UK-based charity with registered charity number 801395. The National Childbirth Trust is the leading charity offering information and support in pregnancy, childbirth and early parenthood. The National Childbirth Trust was launched in 1957. At that time the rules of childbirth dictated that women did as their doctors told them. Very little information about pregnancy and birth was available. The resulting ignorance bred fear, and fear led to pain and a lack of support in childbirth and early parenthood. In two generations, the NCT has transformed almost every aspect of maternity care, for the benefit of mothers, fathers and children. The Trust's activities include parentcraft classes, breastfeeding advice and organising nearly new sales. Bumps and Babes groups organised by the charity bring together mothers with babies of a similar age for support and socialising. The NCT campaigns on issues such as providing support for breastfeeding mothers and the Nestl?? boycott.
