A little this or that with the Adelobs team...

From favourite artists to those big pregnancy milestones, we put a few quick choices to the team and while some answers were divided, one thing’s for sure, no one wants to get stuck installing the car seat!

Dr Amy Hercus and the team at Adelaide Obstetrics and Fertility were honoured to support Jana and Harrison through their twin pregnancy and the safe arrival of Parker and Xander.

Twin pregnancies bring their own unique journey, with additional care, planning and support along the way. It is a privilege to guide families through this experience and to help them feel informed, reassured and well supported at every stage.

Thank you to Jana and Harrison for sharing these beautiful images and for allowing us to share a glimpse of this special time.

That little belly button can bring up a lot of questions in the early days.

In this video, Adelaide Obstetrics and Fertility-affiliated Paediatrician Dr Sanjay Sinhal reassures parents about what is normal when it comes to your baby’s umbilical cord, from how it heals to the appearance of an outie or innie.

As with many things in newborn care, there is a wide range of normal, and most changes are simply part of your baby’s natural development.

If you ever notice something that does not seem quite right or would like reassurance, our team is here to listen, answer your questions and support you with care tailored to your family.

You may have noticed some new artwork we recently had installed throughout Adelaide Obstetrics and Fertility.

Each of these new pieces is Indigenous artwork, thoughtfully sourced through a local studio with a special connection to our clinic. The studio owners have welcomed all of their children with Dr Simona Fischer, even naming one in her honour, making this collaboration especially meaningful.

Curated by Elio, who spent many years living in Alice Springs, this collection reflects a deep commitment to supporting and championing Indigenous artists and communities.

For us, this is about more than simply filling a space. Indigenous art tells powerful stories of culture, connection and Country, and we feel privileged to share these works within our practice.

Many of the artworks are available for purchase, and we invite you to take a moment to explore them during your next visit.

Returning to movement after birth can feel like a big step, and having the right support can make all the difference.

In this video, Bree, Women’s Health Physiotherapist from , shares how our postnatal Pilates classes gently support your recovery by helping you rebuild strength through your core and pelvic floor, while improving balance, coordination and confidence in your body.

With small group sizes and a baby friendly environment, these sessions are designed to feel welcoming, supportive and tailored to you, wherever you are in your recovery.

Did you know April is Caesarean Awareness Month?

In 2018, we captured the birth of baby Matilda with Dr Simona Fischer to help open up conversations around caesarean birth and highlight just how common and important it can be.

While time has passed, the heart of the message remains unchanged. Every birth journey is different and the right path is the one that feels safe and appropriate for you and your family.

At Adelaide Obstetrics and Fertility, we are here to support you with informed, compassionate care, whatever your birth experience looks like.

Acupuncture can be a gentle and supportive part of care throughout pregnancy and into the postnatal period.

In this video, Dr Stana Bokelmann, Registered Acupuncturist and Doctor of Chinese Medicine, shares how acupuncture may help ease common symptoms while also supporting overall wellbeing as your body changes across each stage.

With a focus on both physical comfort and emotional balance, it can be a reassuring option alongside your broader care.

If you have questions or would like to explore whether acupuncture may be right for you, our team is here to listen, guide you and support you with care tailored to your needs.

Thank you to Louise and Simon for sharing these beautiful photos from Oscar’s birth with Dr Simona Fischer.

There is something incredibly special about those first few moments, and it is always a privilege to witness families step into this new chapter and see your little ones so loved from the very beginning.

Moments like this are a reminder of why we do what we do. We are so grateful to have been part of your journey and to share in the arrival of Oscar.
