Seat snub for mums-to-be

FOUR in 10 commuters will not give up their seat for an expectant mother, according to research.

Some fail to offer as they fear offending a woman who is not pregnant.

Skincare firm Mama Mio quizzed 2,000 commuters.

Natalie Cowley said: “We had expected everyone would offer up their seat to a pregnant woman.”

Mama Mio is urging mums-to-be to ask for seats. One idea was to wear a badge signifying the need for a seat.
