Midwifery Group Practice (MGP)

Our MGP program offers you one midwife (who works in a team) who will care for you through your pregnancy, through your birth and at home for 2 weeks after your baby is born. Active labour, normal birth, breastfeeding and early discharge home from the Birthing Unit are important to us.

You may benefit from Midwifery Group Practice if this is your first baby, you would like a vaginal birth after having a previous caesarean section, want to birth at home [Wollongong Hospital only], or do not have a lot of support at home or in the community.
