The Fifties and Sixties radically changed British couples? habits ? sweeping away time-honoured traditions of how people ate, raised their children and behaved socially.
Women tried to keep fashionably slim, took office jobs, bought convenience meals, had babies in quick succession, spurned breastfeeding and felt the pressure of their fast-paced lifestyles.
