The Wall of Woven Babies 🤎

It’s finally up.

For every baby we’ve had the privilege of being present for at birth, whether we were there as their midwife, or beside their family providing support in hospital, we make a little canvas of their footprints at around six weeks old.

One tiny set of feet.
One birth.
One family we’ve had the honour of walking alongside.

And now they finally have a home together on the wall of our clinic.

Every time we look at it, we remember the births behind those footprints - the anticipation, the strength, the quiet moments, the big moments, and the first time those little feet entered the world.

And the best part?

There are already at least five more sets of footprints still to be added in the coming weeks. 🤎

The Wall of Woven Babies is going to need to get a whole lot bigger.

World Breastfeeding Week 🤎

Breastfeeding is one of the first conversations between a mother and their baby - not with words, but through touch, smell, eye contact, closeness, and comfort.

It’s about so much more than nutrition. It’s a relationship that grows one feed, one cuddle and one moment at a time.

Breastmilk is a remarkable living fluid that changes throughout a feed, day, night and as your baby grows, adapting to meet their changing needs, supporting their development and developing immune system.

And every breastfeeding journey has its own story.

It may come easily, or take time. It may last days, weeks, months or years. It may involve one baby or two, expressing, mixed feeding, donor milk, support from many hands - or look completely different from what was originally imagined.

There is no 'perfect' way - only the way that works best for your family. To every mother who is breastfeeding, we see the dedication, the patience, and the persistence that goes into every feed.

This World Breastfeeding Week, we celebrate the beautiful, exhausting, messy, rewarding and deeply meaningful moments of breastfeeding - and the families navigating them.

We also celebrate the partners, communities, midwives, lactation consultants and advocates who provide the informed, compassionate support that helps breastfeeding families thrive.

Happy World Breastfeeding Week. 🤎

Pregnancy care can come with a whole language of its own. Tests, recommendations, guidelines, monitoring, referrals, options.

Being told something is not the same as truly understanding it.

At Woven, we believe you deserve care that makes sense to you - where questions are welcome, explanations are clear, and decisions are made with you, not around you.

Because informed care only works when you actually feel informed.

Pregnant on the Fraser Coast and wanting care that gives you time to ask questions? Send us a message - we’d love to chat!

Pregnancy care feels different when you’re not starting from scratch at every appointment.

A known midwife means someone who understands your story, your preferences, your worries, your family, and what matters most to you.

At Woven Midwifery, we offer private midwifery care across pregnancy, birth and postnatal life -giving you time, continuity, and personalised support as you prepare for birth and beyond.

Whether you’re trying to conceive, newly pregnant, planning a homebirth, wanting hospital birth support, or looking for postnatal care, we can help you work through your options.

Feeding your baby can come with a lot of questions - and sometimes a lot of pressure.

Ansie is an Endorsed Midwife, Registered Nurse, and qualified International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) offering private lactation appointments for the Fraser Coast.

She can support you with breastfeeding, attachment, painful feeds, supply concerns, expressing, mixed feeding, unsettled feeds, slow weight gain, antenatal breastfeeding preparation, and realistic feeding plans that suit your family.

You can book during pregnancy to feel more prepared, or after baby arrives if you need support, reassurance or a clear plan.

Pregnancy care can be more than quick appointments, rushed questions, and feeling like you have to piece everything together yourself.

At Woven Midwifery, we offer private midwifery care for women and families who want more time, more continuity, and more personalised support throughout pregnancy, birth and postnatal life.

That might look like early pregnancy care, regular antenatal appointments, extra education and birth planning, hospital birth support, homebirth care, postnatal visits, breastfeeding support, or simply having a known midwife you can talk things through with.

You don’t have to know exactly what you need before reaching out - that’s part of what we can help with.

Your due date can feel like a finish line...but it’s really just an estimate.

In one study of 12,323 low-risk first-time mothers who went into labour spontaneously:

43.4% went into labour before or by their due date
37.1% went into labour in the week after their due date
19.5% went into labour from 41+0 weeks onwards

So if your due date comes and goes, it doesn’t automatically mean something is wrong. For many women, waiting a little longer is still within the range of normal.

It also doesn’t mean induction is “bad” or that waiting is always the right choice.

It means the conversation should be individual - based on your dates, your health, your baby’s wellbeing, your preferences, and clear information about the benefits and risks of each option.

A due date is useful.

But it is not an expiry date.

Continuity. Calm. Connection.
Woven together.

International Day of the Midwife 🤍

Most of what we do isn’t the big moments people picture.

It’s the early pregnancy questions.
The “this might be nothing but…” messages.
The sitting, listening, and helping things make sense.

The steady, in-between support.

We're so grateful to be part of it, and to the families who let us walk alongside them.
