The Millennium Cohort Study (MCS) is a multi-disciplinary research project following the lives of around 19,000 children born in the UK in 2000/1. Four surveys of MCS cohort members have been carried out so far, the first of which was when the baby was aged 9 months. This report provides an overview of statistics, from MCS dataset 1 and other comparable data sources, about the attitudes, experiences and challenges faced by new parents in each of the 4 countries of the UK. It includes: parental attitudes to child rearing; maternal post-natal attachment; parental mental health; domestic abuse; parental alcohol consumption; and problems experienced by parents during the first few months. It also sheds some light on parental experiences of professional support.
