My daughter and her husband would like to have a baby, I am trying to find them some literature about trying for a baby that is in a more accessible format than that which is available to the general public who don't have an intellectual impairment. Have tried Change and FPA so far with no success. Any suggestions?

Have you seen this? http://goo.gl/gS1tbH. It has had good reviews and might help.
Bristol university also has an excellent resource http://www.bristol.ac.uk/wtwpn/ -
Hi,
this website might be useful, it has some resources for parenting skills : http://www.shropshire.gov.uk/media/293010/resources-for-parents-with-learning-disabilities.pdf
It's worth involving the local community health team , a Psychologist or Community nurse might have good resources to share with them.
Best of luck!
