Our hearts are full! 💕

To every mama, papa, parent-to-be and family who joined us yesterday, THANK YOU!

The Precious Moments Mamas, Papas & Joyous Bundle Expo was a wonderful success, and that is because of YOU!

We had such a lovely time connecting with our community, sharing knowledge, answering questions and celebrating the beautiful journey of pregnancy and parenthood.

A special thank you to Dr Pholo and Associates, Busamed Modderfontein Private Hospital, our participating organisations and everyone who contributed to making the day possible.

It was more than an expo. It was a beautiful reminder of what happens when a community comes together to support growing families. 🤍

Until next time, thank you for showing up and making precious memories with us! 🥰

Some women’s health “facts” have been repeated for so long that we rarely stop to ask whether they’re actually true. 👀

Does eating orange food cause newborn jaundice? Does shivering after delivery mean you’ve been eating ice? Are extremely painful periods simply something women have to tolerate? And does every contraceptive make you gain weight?

Dr Rockson separates some common myths from the medical facts.

Watch, save and send this to the woman who still believes one of these. 😂💜

And tell us in the comments: what pregnancy or women’s health myth did you grow up hearing?

🧠🍀World Mental Health Day | 10 October
As women, we often carry so much - our families, careers, relationships, responsibilities and the expectations we place on ourselves.

And somewhere in between taking care of everyone else, we can forget to check in with ourselves💜

As an Obstetrician and Gynaecologist, I see how closely our physical and emotional wellbeing are connected. From pregnancy and postpartum recovery to hormonal changes, fertility challenges and menopause, different seasons of womanhood can affect us in ways we don't always speak about.

This World Mental Health Day, I want to remind you that being strong doesn't mean you have to carry everything silently.

It's okay to rest, ask for support, set boundaries and acknowledge when things feel overwhelming.

Your mental health is part of your overall health, and it deserves care, compassion and attention.

Today, I'm asking you: when last did you genuinely check in with yourself?

05/10/2026

Baby has arrived - but your care does not stop there.

One of the things your medical team watches closely after delivery is bleeding. Postpartum haemorrhage is excessive bleeding after childbirth, and when it happens, recognising it quickly matters.

🩸 We monitor how much you are bleeding.
🩺 We check your pulse, blood pressure and how you are feeling.
🤰🏾 We assess how well your uterus is contracting.
⚕️ And if bleeding is heavier than expected, we act quickly.

I don’t share this to make mothers anxious. I share it because women deserve to understand what we are looking for and why.

On World Postpartum Haemorrhage Day, remember: safe motherhood includes the hours after birth too.

As a South African woman, I’m reminded that we can honour where we come from while continuing to grow, evolve and create our own stories💜

And perhaps that is one of the most beautiful things about heritage: we inherit it, we celebrate it, and then we add our own chapter.

As we say goodbye to Heritage Month, tell me: what is one part of your heritage that you hope the next generation will always carry with them? 🇿🇦✨

24/09/2026

Today we celebrate the beautiful diversity that makes South Africa home — our languages, food, music, traditions, families and the stories passed from one generation to the next. 🇿🇦

Happy Heritage Day, South Africa!

What is one tradition from your family or culture that you hope will always be passed down?

There are moments when words feel inadequate.

As women, we are grieving. As a country, we should be deeply concerned. And as a doctor whose life’s work is caring for women, I cannot remain silent when women’s lives are being taken.

My heart, prayers and deepest sympathies are with every family mourning a woman they loved. 🤍

Women deserve safety. Women deserve justice. Women deserve to live.

16/09/2026

Women have been taught the rules for years.

Don't walk alone. Don't run alone. Don't go out too late. Watch what you wear. Share your location.

Call when you arrive. Be vigilant. Be careful. But women are already careful.

What we should be asking is why women cannot simply live without constantly calculating the risk of violence.

As a doctor who has dedicated my work to women's health, I cannot speak about the wellbeing of women without also caring deeply about their safety.

My heart is with the women whose lives have been taken, their families, and every woman who is carrying fear because of what is happening in our communities.

Women deserve more than advice on how to survive. They deserve to live safely and freely💜🤍
