Swimming is great exercise throughout pregnancy! It has great cardiovascular benefits, reduces joint pain, and can encourage baby to get into a more ideal position for birth (head down, spine towards your belly). The buoyancy of the water can feel amazing in 3rd trimester!! 🤰

And you don’t have to be a competitive swimmer like she is!! 🏊‍♀️

We have so many indoor pool options in Sudbury and surrounding areas!

Did you swim during your pregnancy?

This week some of our Sudbury Community Midwives met with MPPs Jamie West NDP and France Gélinas to discuss the call from the Association of Ontario Midwives to the Ministry of Health to implant the recommendations made for for midwives. Everyone benefits when we pay and treat midwives fairly!

02/14/2026

The Association of Ontario Midwives is calling on the Ministry of Health to implement recommendations made by an independent third-party Mediator to treat midwives comparably to other health professions--or risk losing them.

In her report, the Mediator, Beverly Mathers, recommended that midwives receive similar redress provided to physicians, nurses and other public sector workers to make up for the province's unconstitutional compensation restraint legislation and policies.

The report states that "... there is no mathematical equation that puts Ontario's midwives anywhere but further behind economically" because of the Ministry's compensation restraints.
