Our due date for arrival of our babies is coming up very quickly. We don’t muck around at Nine Months & Counting!

We will keep you updated, soon as we know further information on their arrival.

💡So, what is an estimated due date?

An estimated due date for pregnancy is typically calculated based on the first day of the woman's last menstrual period (LMP) and is usually around 40 weeks from that date. This estimation assumes a regular 28-day menstrual cycle and ovulation occurring on day 14.

However, it's important to note that due dates are estimates and can vary based on individual factors such as the length of the menstrual cycle and the exact timing of ovulation. Most healthcare providers will confirm the estimated due date from your LMP or through ultrasound measurements during the first trimester.

The postnatal period – 4th Trimester - a delicate dance of exhaustion and enchantment.

Night’s blur into a symphony of baby cries and lullabies, while days are a whirlwind of diaper changes and sleep-deprived laughter. New parent/s navigate a world where onesies become daily attire, and breastfeeding and/or bottle feeding is both a challenge, along with changing nappies before the little person makes a mess again. Amidst the chaos, there are precious moments – tiny smiles, baby giggles – that transform the fatigue into pure love.

The postnatal chapter, a brief yet intense saga, where every milestone, from burp cloths to first smiles, is a reminder of the profound beauty in the mundane chaos of parenthood.

Stage 3 – Birthing the placenta – the temporary organ.

This is the part where your body decides to throw one last surprise party, just when you thought the main event was over. Don’t worry, the placenta doesn’t have any bones.

After nurturing and crafting life for nine months, it's a moment where you acknowledge the silent hero, applaud its incredible work, and marvel at the magic that grew a human within.

No doubt your midwife or obstetrician will offer you front row seats to see and marvel at the wonders of the placenta.

Giving credit to the placenta in the antenatal period, where it plays a crucial role in facilitating the exchange of nutrients, oxygen, and waste products between the mother's bloodstream and the baby's bloodstream. It also produces hormones that help sustain the pregnancy.

How incredible is the placenta!

*Ask us about delay cord clamping. *Ask us about active or physiological 3rd stage
*Ask us about cord blood donation.
*Ask us about taking your placenta home.
