10.01.2022 [AMBA WEBINAR SERIES] Later this month, AMBA will be launching an online member-family program, delivered by webinar straight to you. COVID-19 is an extraordina...ry event and is changing all our lives on a daily basis. We are committed to ensuring that as a member-family, there is continuity of service to you, just delivered in a different way. These are challenging times and our commitment to serve families is stronger than ever. We will be curating content from paid and voluntary sources, covering topics to help families with the practicalities of life, as well as providing an opportunity for you to learn about AMBA, our directors, our mission and how we work towards it. This webinar series will be free for families who are members of an AMBA affiliated member-club. If you aren't a member yet, you can find your closest club at www.amba.org.au/clubfinder . ~~~ Proudly brought to you by GoToWebinar.

09.01.2022 AMBA supports the petition to have abdominoplasty reinstated to the Medicare Benefits Schedule for women with abdominal separation after pregnancy. Mums who have had a multiple birth are more prone to abdominal separation, which leads to ongoing medical issues and reduced quality of life. Please sign the petition to show your support before it closes on 23rd September. https://www.aph.gov.au/petition_list?id=EN1751

09.01.2022 Got a feeling that someone you know or care about it isn’t behaving as they normally would? Perhaps they seem out of sorts? More agitated or withdrawn? Or they’...re just not themselves. Trust that gut instinct and act on it. Amongst plenty of positive experiences and the joys of raising multiples, the multiple birth community also face challenging realities such as poorer physical and developmental health outcomes for mothers and babies. When considering the family unit, health is not just the absence of disease, but encompasses a holistic view of physical, mental and social well-being. As we head into R U OK day tomorrow on Thurs 10 September, learn more about the signs and when it's time to ask R U OK?
