At Preggy Mom and Babes, we specialize in providing exceptional midwife care during the labour process, promoting a natural and holistic approach. With our team of dedicated midwives, we ensure your feto-maternal wellbeing while progressing your labour. Our comprehensive services include continuous monitoring of vital signs such as urine, blood pressure, pulse, temperature, respiration, and uterine contractions. We prioritize your comfort and manage pain through non-drug relief methods like back massages, breathing exercises, and soothing salt baths.
Using advanced digital technology (CTG), we diligently monitor your baby's wellbeing by interpreting their heart rate readings throughout labour, ensuring the exclusion of fetal distress. Regular vaginal examinations are conducted to assess cervical dilation and monitor labour progress accurately. Once fully dilated, we skillfully deliver your baby, promoting immediate skin-to-skin contact between you and your newborn for optimal bonding.
We understand the importance of respecting your birth plan, as long as it aligns with our professional guidelines. To minimize perineal tears, we provide strong support during delivery and employ suturing techniques with local anesthesia to alleviate any discomfort during repairs. Additionally, we offer comprehensive education on post-stitch care.
Breastfeeding support is a priority for us, and we facilitate early initiation by encouraging immediate breastfeeding after birth. For six hours until discharge, your baby will spend quality time with both parents in a comfortable room. Our team also provides guidance on baby care, including nappy changes, cord care, and bathing demonstrations. Vitamin K administration and BCG vaccinations can be administered based on parental concerns.
