Understandably, we can get caught up in the chaos of world events or become ...focused on how labour and birth experiences might be affected.

22.01.2022 Today is is World Prematurity Day, a globally celebrated awareness day to increase understanding around preterm births and the pain and suffering that families ...with a premature or sick baby can go through. Every year in Australia more than 27,000 babies are born premature. We acknowledge the good work of Life's Little Treasures Foundation and Miracle Babies Foundation in this space. We also recognise the need for evidence-based, high quality treatment and care to improve health outcomes of preterm babies worldwide. #WorldPrematurityDay2020

21.01.2022 ~ Early Pregnancy Loss Commemorative Certificate ~ While not a legal document, we love that the Victoria State Government is offering these beautiful commemorat...ive certificates in recognition of the significance of early loss. This is a wonderful acknowledgement at a time when often there is a lack of acknowledgement for early pregnancy losses.

18.01.2022 ~ PERINATAL MENTAL HEALTH WEEK: 8-14 NOVEMBER 2020 ~ >Grief and Loss< Self-compassion can provide temporary relief to the unbearable reality of pregnancy loss... or infant death. You are not alone many many women have experienced perinatal loss across centuries, across borders and from all walks of life. They know your pain. At times when you are struggling or hurting, if can be helpful to remind yourself of this that you are not alone. If you can, try placing your hand on your heart (or caress/cradle your face) (and notice the warmth of your hand. And notice how soothing that feels and notice that your brain instantly responds to that sensory data -& bypasses your thinking brain and notice it is still soothing even if it’s not a hug from someone else). And while aware of your situation, acknowledge: This is a moment of suffering Suffering is part of life So, may I be kind to myself in this moment May I give myself the compassion I need. (Adapted from Kristen Neff and Julie King).

15.01.2022 Physical abuse isn’t the only sign of an unhealthy relationship. Psychological, financial, verbal, social, economic, sexual and spiritual abuse are equally harmful. QCDFVR has more information on respectful relationships here http://ow.ly/VTW050Ajfvm
