25.01.2022 We care and we are here for you. Being a parent or expectant parent to twins, triplets and more can be amazing but it can also be really hard. Message us to find out how we can help you.

25.01.2022 Doctors estimate that identical, spontaneous quadruplet births occur in 1 in 11 million to 15 million births. So very special! https://scoop.upworthy.com/mom-gives-birth-rare-identical-q

24.01.2022 PANDA Week starts today to raise awareness about perinatal mental illness and to reduce stigma so those affected can seek help and this year's theme is ‘Tell someone who cares’. This is a huge issue for the multiple birth community and a big part of why Multiple Birth SA exists. We are here for you and you can talk to us because we care - and we get it! Other great resources are your GP, PANDA and your Child Youth Health Nurse. You do not have to do this alone....

24.01.2022 We extend our gratitude and thanks to the many Midwives who have guided and supported our families with twins,triplets and more, and whom have also helped to deliver some of our multiple babies. Today is an acknowledgement of what you do and how much you are valued!

23.01.2022 International Nurses Day is celebrated around the world every May 12, the anniversary of Florence Nightingale's birth. Today we acknowledge the commitment and bravery of nurses and thank them for their outstanding contributions to society.

23.01.2022 The Entertainment Book is now available year round and it saves you money while supporting MBSA - double win!

22.01.2022 With the latest restrictions being introduced as of midnight tonight, it is with regret that Multiple Birth SA Home Help Service will be paused for at least the next six (6) days. We will be in contact with anyone who is currently using the service to let them know of this suspension. We endeavor to reintroduce the service as soon as restrictions allow with SA Health directions. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause multiple birth families. If you have any questio...ns or concerns then please comment here, message this page or email [email protected]. Thank you all for your patience. #COVID19 #southaustralia #twins #triplets

19.01.2022 The MBSA committee has been so disappointed that we have had to cancel our second major event for 2020, so we have decided to give back! We are doing 12 DAYS OF FESTIVE FUN! We would love for all of our families to get involved and be in the running for one of our daily AMAZING prizes. - - 1 12 ... - / - , - ( ) We hope these little competitions brings a little bit of joy into your household each day!

19.01.2022 Unfortunately with the SA government's announcements this afternoon we have decided to cancel the Christmas Party on Sunday. We are really sad to miss out on this special day to celebrate with so many amazing twin, triplet and more families but we need to keep everyone safe. We will refund tickets as quickly as we can.

18.01.2022 What an effort by these amazing parents of premature babies - thank you!! Miracle Mumma https://www.abc.net.au//parents-of-premature-babi/12930264

18.01.2022 Wishing a special Mothers Day to our mothers of twins, triplets, and more! You all deserve double / triple the spoiling today.

17.01.2022 Today marks the first day of National Volunteer Week. MBSA relies on the generosity of volunteers whom contribute towards the operation and functionality of our organisation. From our committee members to connect and play group facilitators; MBSA are so grateful for our many volunteers. Without you all we would not be able to offer the support, events, and services we provide to our community whom we serve. Thank you!

16.01.2022 Congratulations Adelaide Zoo on your triplets!! https://www.facebook.com/AdelaideZoo/posts/4158722277489179

16.01.2022 Some good news for a change https://www.facebook.com//a.3924551808095/3502613456460345

15.01.2022 Peer support can really make a big difference in someone's life - it's a huge part of what MBSA does to help support twin, triplet & more families. And with these parents being at higher risk for postnatal anxiety and depression this study could really help multiple birth parents - as well as other parents.

14.01.2022 How are our multi parents of two or three (or more) toddlers going? https://www.facebook.com/myjourneywithtwinss/posts/3108741995892234

13.01.2022 What have your multiples gotten up to as a team?

13.01.2022 For twins - identical and non-identical - aged 18-65 years and you might win an iPad mini each or shopping vouchers. https://www.facebook.com/TwinsResearchAustralia/posts/3756469137710043

13.01.2022 It's funny because it's true! https://www.facebook.com/twinsmemes/posts/115854953111788

13.01.2022 As parents of multiples (twins, triplets, or more) sometimes we are faced with practicial conumdrums such as which "runner" is deserving of my initial attention at this very moment!

12.01.2022 For those with twins, triplets or more in the north of Adelaide, the Gawler Connect & Play group is back at Gawler & District College B-12 Children's Centre every Tuesday morning starting February 2nd! Connect & Play groups are safe, supportive spaces for multiple birth families to connect and play. They are a great way to meet others in your area and get advice from those who have been there. These groups operate across the state - although current running does vary with COVID restrictions still in place. Check out our website for a list of all the groups - https://www.multiplebirthsa.org.au//connect-and-play-grou/ or message us for details.

12.01.2022 Today is World Prematurity Awareness Day. In South Australia almost two thirds of twins are born prematurely (before 37 weeks) and almost all triplets and more are premature. This can mean many things for families, including having to leave their babies in hospital to life long health issues. We are here to support those families through the premature birth roller coaster because we have been there. We have premature birth support contacts who can support you and direct you to the many services that can help

11.01.2022 Congratulations to those who started school today! Did you spot this news story that featured some of our members?

10.01.2022 Kangaroo Care is close to the hearts of all NICU parents and a common treatment for twins, triplets, and more born prematurely. We would love to hear about your experience or a photo of kangaroo care with your precious multiples.

09.01.2022 With the latest restrictions being wound back we are happy to announce that the Multiple Birth SA Home Help Service is back! We will be in contact with anyone who is currently using the service to let them know when they can restart. If you have any questions or concerns then please comment here, message this page or email [email protected].... Thank you all for your patience during these challenging times.

09.01.2022 Many support services are still available during the holiday period in case you or a friend need them <3

08.01.2022 For those parents whose multiples were born before 32 weeks and are now between 3 and 7 years old, there's a study that could use your help.

08.01.2022 For those new Dads whose babies have spent time in the neonatal unit, this international research survey that seeks to explore the perceptions and experiences of fathers of infants who are currently on admission in the neonatal unit or have been discharged during the Covid-19 pandemic. The survey takes 15-20 minutes to complete. Thanks to @NICUbeard for sharing this https://eaecu.au1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_cTOlzQGDQ9eH2F7
