Did you know April is Caesarean Awareness Month?

In 2018, we captured the birth of baby Matilda with Dr Simona Fischer to help open up conversations around caesarean birth and highlight just how common and important it can be.

While time has passed, the heart of the message remains unchanged. Every birth journey is different and the right path is the one that feels safe and appropriate for you and your family.

At Adelaide Obstetrics and Fertility, we are here to support you with informed, compassionate care, whatever your birth experience looks like.

With a focus on both physical comfort and emotional balance, it can be a reassuring option alongside your broader care.

After 12 years of unwavering dedication, compassion, and exceptional care, today we celebrate a truly iconic colleague as she steps into a well-earned retirement.

The steady heartbeat of the Adelobs team, Jenny has not only brought skill and knowledge , but warmth, humour and a generosity of spirit that have made even the most challenging days easier.

Through offering words of wisdom or kindness at the right moment, Jenny’s impact has been felt by not only her colleagues past and present, but by the wider Adelobs community.

An icon is defined not merely by tenure but by the legacy they leave behind, integrity, excellence and genuine care for others. This influence will continue to shape our workplace.

Jenny you will be missed on busy clinic days but as you enter this exciting new chapter filled with rest, travel, family time and adventure, we thank you for everything you have given! You leave behind not only a role but a lasting inspiration!

Changes in nappies are a normal part of your baby’s first week of life.

In this video, Adelaide Obstetrics and Fertility-affiliated Paediatrician Dr Sanjay Sinhal explains how urine output and poo colour naturally change as feeding establishes and milk supply increases. These day to day changes are often a reassuring sign that your baby is adjusting and growing.

If you are ever unsure about what is normal or notice something that concerns you, our team is here to listen, answer your questions and support you with care tailored to your family.

Vaccination during pregnancy plays an important role in protecting both mother and baby.

In this video, Sandy, Midwife and Clinic Nurse at Adelaide Obstetrics and Fertility, explains the three vaccines commonly recommended during pregnancy as part of the National Immunisation Program.

These vaccines help protect newborns during their most vulnerable early months, before their own immune systems are fully developed.

If you have questions about vaccinations during pregnancy or would like to discuss what is recommended for you, our team is here to listen, answer your questions and support you with the right information and care.

Each year, Red Nose Australia Safe Sleep Week is a gentle reminder that small steps can make a meaningful difference in keeping babies safe during sleep.

This year’s message from Red Nose Australia is Know the Why. Check the Space. Make it Safe. It encourages families to understand why safe sleep matters, take a moment to look at their baby’s sleep environment and make simple changes if something does not look right.

At Adelaide Obstetrics and Fertility, we know the early weeks with a newborn can bring many questions and moments of uncertainty. Our team is here to offer trusted guidance and practical advice so you can feel supported and confident as you care for your baby.

If you have questions about safe sleep or newborn care, please contact our team. We are here to listen, answer your questions and support you every step of the way.
