Protecting two lives, from the very beginning 💟

This year, the theme for World Immunisation Week, ‘for every generation, vaccines work’ is a reminder of just how powerful vaccines are - especially for expectant mothers and newborn babies.

Immunisations help your body build protection against serious diseases, reducing the risk of complications for both mum and bub.

During pregnancy, certain vaccines (like whooping cough, respiratory syncytial virus and flu) help pass on protective antibodies to your baby, giving them vital early immunity before they’re old enough to be vaccinated themselves.

After birth, following the recommended immunisation schedule continues that protection, keeping your little one safe as they grow.

It’s a simple step that makes a lifelong difference - for you, your baby, and the wider community 💜

Not the typical origin story, but we love it!

What began with a ‘nerdy’ entry into medicine, has evolved into a profession rooted in care, connection, and supporting women through some of life’s most significant moments.

Dr. Asha’s warmth, dedication, and genuine passion for her patients is exactly why we feel so lucky to have her as part of the Belong O&G family 💟

Chocolate lovers rejoice, there actually is a link 🍫

Hormonal changes, particularly shifts in oestrogen and progesterone before your period, can impact serotonin (your feel-good chemical), which is why your body starts reaching for a little mood boost… hello chocolate 🤗

Chocolate also contains magnesium, which your body may crave during this time to help with things like cramps and fatigue..so it’s not just an excuse.

That said, sometimes it is about comfort, habit, or simply wanting something sweet - and honestly, that’s valid too.

So the verdict? A little science, a little indulgence… and we’re not judging either way ☺️

April is Adenomyosis Awareness Month 🫶🏽

Adenomyosis is a condition where the inner lining of the uterus grows into the muscle wall, often leading to an enlarged uterus and significant discomfort.

Common symptoms can include ⬇️

· Heavy or prolonged periods
· Severe cramping
· Pelvic pain
· Bloating
· Fatigue

Experiences can vary from person to person and while there’s no one-size-fits-all treatment, options may include pain management, hormonal therapies, lifestyle support, and in some cases, surgery.

Raising awareness of Adenomyosis helps more people feel seen, heard, and supported.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding symptoms, we encourage you to speak with your Belong O&G doctor 💟

PSA: As the weather starts to change and we move into autumn it’s important to prepare for flu season – especially if you are pregnant or planning to be.

Here are the key immunisations to be aware of that help protect both you and your baby, that you may like to consider👇🏽

· Flu vaccine: recommended during pregnancy and safe at any stage. It helps protect you and your baby after birth
· Whooping cough (pertussis) vaccine: recommended in every pregnancy, ideally between 20-32 weeks
· RSV vaccine: recommended in every pregnancy, ideally between 28-36 weeks

Remember, timing matters as some vaccines are pregnancy specific, so planning ahead is important.

We suggest chatting with your Belong O&G doctor to ensure your immunisations are up to date.

Protecting yourself during pregnancy is also a powerful way to protect your baby. Early planning = peace of mind 💟

Meet our wonderful Practice Midwife, Andrea 🤗

Andrea has been with us at Belong O&G for 9 months and her favourite part of her role is providing care, compassion and advice from her knowledge and experience to a family’s adventure as they prepare to welcome a new little person into their world.

She also loves when that adorable little person comes back to visit the rooms!

Favourite piece of advice for new parents: A labour and birth plan can be a great idea, however, it’s even better if you can be a little flexible. The feeling of pure love, elation, and relief, not disappointment, is what will set you up well for the next chapter of your adventure.

A healthy Mummy and babe are the most important things. Sometimes there are a few curves and hills you were not expecting, but it will be so worth it …remember you are about to meet the little person, who you already love, and have been waiting for, all this time.

Where you’ll find Andrea when she’s not at work: The gym, walking my dog Joey, with friends & family, gardening and I love a glass of bubbles!
