Sometimes, labour needs a little help to begin and that’s where induction may be recommended for your birth.

Some reasons for induction might include:

🩺 A medical condition
📆 Going significantly past your due date
💧 Waters breaking without labour starting

Induction may involve:
Taking steps to start your labour, the method of induction is based on an assessment completed by your obstetrician.
Your care team will explain what’s involved, monitor you and your baby closely, and support you through the process.

🧘 You can still use pain relief, birth positions and comfort measures during induction.
📣 Ask questions and talk through your preferences – your voice matters.

“I just can’t switch off.”
Anxiety can feel like a racing mind, a tight chest, or a sense of dread — even when there’s no obvious reason.
Signs may include:
• Constant worrying
• Trouble sleeping
• Restlessness or feeling on edge
• Difficulty concentrating
• Physical symptoms (racing heart, nausea, sweating)
• Avoiding certain places or people

Anxiety is common, but it’s not something you have to manage alone. We’re here to help.

R U OK? Day reminds us that conversations about mental health matter every day, not just once a year.

Checking in with a colleague, friend or family member and really listening can make all the difference. Sometimes, that simple conversation is the key to opening the door to the support someone needs most💬💛

Today we celebrate the dads, partners and father figures who are there from those very first moments, in the birth suite, during late-night feeds, and through every nappy, cuddle and giggle.

Whether you're a first-time dad, a seasoned parent, a same-sex partner, a solo parent support person or a loved one stepping into the role, your presence, love and support mean everything.

Happy Father’s Day from us 💙

This Women’s Health Week, we’re putting the spotlight on you.

Whether you’re pregnant, recently given birth, or deep in the newborn or baby raising trenches, your wellbeing matters. A lot. Here’s some gentle reminders to put you first:

✔️ Rest when you can, even 10 minutes counts
✔️ Move your body gently, in ways that feel good
✔️ Book your 6-week postnatal check
✔️ Talk about pelvic floor health
✔️ Ask about contraception if needed
✔️ Check in on your mental wellbeing
✔️ Drink water (yes, this is your reminder!)
✔️ Say no to things that drain you
✔️ Make space for something that’s just for you

Because caring for yourself is caring for your family too. 💜

Did you know that your baby can recognise your voice even before they’re born? Studies show that babies can hear sounds around 25 weeks gestation, and your voice is one of the first they’ll recognise after birth. 🗣👶

🧡 The Golden Hour – Your First Moments Together 🧡

The golden hour is the magical time just after birth when your baby is placed skin-to-skin on your chest.

It’s more than just a cuddle — it’s a powerful bonding moment that helps regulate your baby’s temperature, heartbeat, and breathing, while also boosting breastfeeding hormones and calming both of you after birth.

At Ramsay Maternity, we honour this sacred time. Wherever possible, we delay routine checks to give you uninterrupted skin-to-skin — because those first moments matter. 🤱

✨ Skin-to-skin
✨ Bonding and connection
✨ Support for breastfeeding
✨ Calm for you and baby

Your golden hour is your time — soak it all in. 💛

The hospital is owned and operated by Ramsay Health Care Ltd, a publically listed Australian company whose name is synonymous with quality in private health care.

Our highly skilled team of nursing and medical staff take pride in developing a distinctive private hospital experience and a quality of care that is recognised by the community.

Our five modern operating theatres are equipped with the latest technical equipment, supporting minor and complex surgery. For acutely ill patients or following major surgery, the three bed High Dependency Unit provides constant care and supervision to patients requiring specialist attention.

The hospital also accommodates admissions from doctors or Emergency Departments in our local area. Our medical staff provides medical cover 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with a General Surgeon and Physician roster in place to facilitate direct admission and care of acute medical patients.
