This week on Mamabetes we are joined by special guest Amanda Callaghan, registered nurse, registered midwife and credentialed diabetes educator at Diabetes Queensland. Amanda talked with us about the many healthcare professionals who form part of our team during pregnancy and when we might encounter them. We discussed how to get the most out of conversations with these varying team members as they help care for us and our babies.
For non-urgent 24 hour access to midwife support, the Pregnancy, Birth and Baby helpline supports parents on the journey from pregnancy, to baby and pre-school. They can be contacted on 1800 882 436.
You can also contact your local diabetes state organisation or NDSS for support in talking to your healthcare professionals. Read more on the Diabetes Australia website at: https://www.diabetesaustralia.com.au/health-care-team
