Show Notes

Hosts Ash & Rachel talk to Midwife, Diabetes Educator, Paediatric Nurse and ENDIA study research nurse, Belinda Moore, about the role of midwives and their importance in pregnancy for women with pre-existing diabetes. We discuss how women with diabetes can benefit from regular contact with midwives throughout their pregnancy and labour care.

Speak to your clinic about setting up regular midwife support appointments. You can contact ADIPS for more information about the role of midwives in your pregnancy with pre-existing diabetes.
