The postpartum period, often called the “fourth trimester”, is a time of healing, adjusting, and rediscovering your strength.

Every woman’s journey is different, but here are some common changes you might notice after birth:

✔️ Bleeding (lochia) that can last for weeks

✔️ Cramping as your uterus returns to size

✔️ Breast changes, tenderness, or engorgement

✔️ Emotional highs and lows, including “baby blues”

✔️ Deep fatigue, disrupted sleep, and moments of feeling overwhelmed

You're not alone in this. Dr Marcia Bonazzi provides holistic postnatal care that supports your recovery, physically, mentally, and emotionally.

The weeks after birth are more than a blur, they’re a time of deep healing, intense change, and quiet strength.

It’s natural to give everything to your newborn. But your recovery matters too.

🛌 Rest helps your body’s healing after labour, regulate hormones, and may reduce the risk of postnatal complications.

🥗 Good nutrition supports tissue repair, milk production, and your energy, especially when sleep is broken and demands are high.

As an experienced obstetrician, Dr Marcia Bonazzi partners with new mothers to ensure their postnatal care is realistic, supported, and tailored, because your wellbeing is an important part of your baby’s, too.

The journey doesn’t end when your baby is born, postnatal care is essential for supporting your physical recovery and emotional health. In the weeks following birth, your body undergoes many changes: healing from delivery, hormonal adjustments, and adapting to breastfeeding and sleep changes.

A comprehensive postnatal check-up with your obstetrician helps identify any concerns, such as infection, postpartum bleeding, or mood changes like baby blues or postpartum depression. It’s also a key opportunity to discuss contraception and your overall well-being as you transition into motherhood.

Schedule your postnatal appointment today and take the next step in receiving care that supports both your recovery and wellbeing.

Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths in or around the uterus, and while they’re common, their symptoms can significantly impact your quality of life. From heavy periods to pelvic pressure or frequent urination, fibroids often go undiagnosed until they begin interfering with daily routines.

We take the time to listen, assess, and personalise your care, from monitoring small fibroids to exploring medical or surgical treatment options for more complex cases.

There’s no one-size-fits-all approach. If you’re experiencing unexplained pelvic symptoms, it’s worth discussing whether fibroids could be the cause.

Book a consultation today to take the first step toward clarity and care tailored to you.

Healthy weight gain during pregnancy supports your baby’s growth and your wellbeing, but it’s not the same for everyone. On average:

🤰First trimester: Minimal gain, about 0.5–2 kg

🤰Second trimester: Approximately 0.5 kg per week

🤰Third trimester: Around 0.5 kg per week, with a focus on steady, balanced growth

Factors like your pre-pregnancy weight and overall health influence your ideal range. Gaining too little or too much can impact pregnancy outcomes, so personalised guidance is essential.

Have questions about your pregnancy weight gain? Book a consultation to develop a tailored plan that supports you and your baby’s health throughout your pregnancy.

Gestational diabetes affects up to 1 in 10 pregnant women in Australia and requires careful management to ensure the best outcomes for both mother and baby. It occurs when blood sugar levels rise during pregnancy, which can increase risks such as high birth weight and delivery complications.

Effective management includes balanced nutrition, regular physical activity, blood sugar monitoring, and in some cases, medication. Early diagnosis and ongoing support are key to maintaining healthy glucose levels throughout your pregnancy.

If you’ve been diagnosed with gestational diabetes or want to learn how to reduce your risk, book a consultation to create a personalised care plan tailored to your needs.

Knowing the early signs of labour can help you feel prepared and confident when your baby’s arrival is near. Common signs include regular contractions that get stronger and closer together, a “show” of mucus or blood-tinged discharge, your waters breaking, and lower back or pelvic pressure.

Every pregnancy is unique, so some symptoms may come early or later, but if you notice any of these signs, especially your waters breaking or strong, regular contractions, it’s time to get in touch with your healthcare provider.

Have questions about labour or when to head to the hospital? Book a prenatal appointment to discuss your birth plan and get personalised guidance.
