Today, you might see a lot of people wearing a little red nose ❤️👃 — and while it may look fun and lighthearted, it carries a deeply important message.

Red Nose Day is about saving little lives and supporting families through the unthinkable loss of a baby or child. Every year in Australia, over 3,000 families face the heartbreak of stillbirth, SIDS, or other sudden infant deaths. Behind each statistic is a family, a story, and a lifetime of love that was far too short. 💔

This day isn’t just about awareness—it’s about action. By taking part in Red Nose Day, you help fund:
✨ Life-saving research into prevention and early intervention
✨ Education for parents, caregivers, and health professionals about safe sleep and pregnancy health
✨ 24/7 grief and loss support for families facing the unimaginable

Your support matters more than you know. Whether you wear a red nose, make a donation, share a post, or simply start a conversation, you’re helping create a future where every baby gets the chance to grow up.

💡 Let’s stand together—because together, we can reduce the number of families facing this heartbreak. Together, we can save lives.

📅 Mark the date. Wear your red nose. Share the message. Donate if you can.
Every action counts, and every little life matters.

✨ Finding your Midwife - When, Why & How ✨

Most people think you only need a midwife once labour starts — but the truth is, the earlier you connect, the better your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey can be. 🌸

From the first trimester, a midwife provides you with continuity of care that is tailored to you. Appointments without time limits and in your own home, a personalised approach and emotional support, and expert guidance that puts you at the centre of every decision. Having a midwife helps you feel confident, informed, and truly heard — whether you’re planning a hospital or home birth, having your own midwife is a great option for care.

Private midwives can book up quickly, so don’t wait until the last minute. If you’re looking for a hospital midwife to provide continuity of care, make sure your GP does your hospital referral EARLY (before 12 weeks!) and specifically requests the MGP program for you (Midwifery Group Practice).

Your midwife could be the game-changer you didn’t know you needed. 💛

💡 Did you know? Around 4% of babies are breech at term (from 37 weeks) — that’s about 1 in every 20 babies! 📊
This makes it statistically likely to be a somewhat normal variation of human birth — and not automatically a problem, as long as your care provider knows what they’re doing!

🤰 Was your baby breech at any point in pregnancy, or did they stay breech right up until birth?
Share your experience below — let’s talk about it! 💬✨

"What’s a backup midwife?"

For every birth — whether at home or in hospital — the plan is for two midwives to be present. 👩‍👩‍

You’ll have your primary midwife, the one you’ve been seeing throughout pregnancy. Then there’s the backup midwife (also called the second midwife).

She’s the one who brings fresh energy toward the end of your labour, offers an extra pair of hands, and supports both mum and baby after birth — so that there’s one midwife for each of you. She’s also the one jotting down the important things, like the time your baby was born ⏰👶

✨ If you have a private midwife, you’ll likely meet your backup midwife around 36–38 weeks during a home visit. This helps her get to know your space, meet your partner, pets or kids, and have a relaxed chat about her role. It means that on your birth day, she’s not a stranger.

🏥 In hospital settings, the second midwife is often the shift coordinator or whoever is available on the birth suite — sometimes familiar, sometimes a new face.

Did you know your second midwife before your birth? 💬
