Ask a midwife (Robyn Dempsey)

This is the first edition of our “Ask a Midwife” live Zoom meeting series hosted by our secretary, Amelia Parkinson.
In this video Robyn Dempsey, a private midwife, answers a wide range of your questions, including: “Can I have a waterbirth in a second floor unit?”,  “Why are women in hospital ‘on the clock’ and how is this different in a homebirth?” and many more, touching on the practical and financial aspects of homebirth in Australia.  Enjoy!
