Happy International Day of the Midwife 👣👶♥️

International Day of the Midwife is celebrated each year on may 5th. This is a chance for midwives to celebrate their profession and for all of us to recognise their work and contribution to maternal and newborn health.

We thank Renai, Erin and Phibian who work in our AMIHS team across the district for their ongoing commitment to high quality midwifery care and the dedication, skill and compassionate care you provide to women and their families.

C Section Mummas 💪 ♥️

April is Caesarean Birth Awareness month. Throughout this month, we want to take the time to recognise the strength, courage, and resilience of mothers who have undergone a Caesarean birth.

Every C-section birth is different. Yours may have been associated with trauma or joy. It may have been carefully planned, or an unforeseen emergency. It may have been on your terms, or out of your control.

Having a C-section can raise complex, difficult emotions, and it comes with its own intense physical recovery which is rarely acknowledged. It can also be a source of joy and healing. Birth, no matter what kind you have, is profound, intense and life-changing.

C-sections carry some risk factors for perinatal mental health challenges. One study showed that people who have a C-section birth can experience higher rates of depression during the postnatal period.

If you want to talk about your birth, PANDA is here to listen and support you. You can contact the PANDA Helpline on 1300 726 306.
