Hospital Hunting: Public, Private & Everything In Between

It’s month 3 and you may be starting to show! Your little one’s muscular system is taking shape and they’re about the size of a baseball.

In this episode, we’ll discuss the advantages of using these early months to start thinking about your hospital options and path to birth. Families come in all shapes and sizes, so we’re here to ensure that you know how to access the care that suits your unique needs.

We're joined by pregnancy and birth doula Jade Van Dijk to discuss how she helps expectant mothers navigate their hospital options. Plus, we're speaking with registered nurse and midwife Zoe Robson about the role of education and personalised care during pregnancy. 

Hello Bump is proudly made in partnership with Huggies.
