Our third message for #BabyCommunicationWeek24 is one we hope will take away stress and anxiety for new parents. Wanting to do the best for your baby comes from a place of love and care but there's a thing far better (& more realistic) than perfection and that is connection...🩷

Current school behaviour approaches are failing children. They punish them for having problems, while doing little to help them solve them.

It's time we stopped firefighting with ridiculous, childist carrots/sticks approaches

The Australian Government is conducting a Scope of Practice Review. Midwives, please make your thoughts known about midwifery's scope of practice. You can choose 'midwife', and they want research to back your comments https://t.co/apdjbwuxaE

"The inquiry, which started last month, was triggered after 30 mothers made complaints about Wagga Wagga Base Hospital, including allegations some were forcibly held down, given inadequate pain relief or told they would be induced to free up beds." https://t.co/q5aSPtZqES

The first 1001 days are considered 'critical' by all who understand what happens in this time. The foundations for future health and well-being are being laid. Problems experienced in early relationships can and do present themselves further down the line. We must be informed.

"Research shows that a positive birth experience is dependent on two things: the birthing mother’s ability to make informed choices and those choices being respected and supported by her care provider."

"Research shows that a positive birth experience is dependent on two things: the birthing mother’s ability to make informed choices and those choices being respected and supported by her care provider." Yes - but luck is important too. https://t.co/pNtFLnxkPO

"The crisis of modern motherhood.. lays bare structural injustices, such as chauvinism and racism in maternal care, and the failures of predatory capitalism and the nuclear family."
