If you require a general anesthetic, this requires intubation, which creates additional risk so partners/support persons will be asked to wait until you are in the recovery area to see you and your baby(ies). Please know that our team will do the very best they can to provide support to you during this challenging and important time.

It is important that you have arranged a doctor to see your baby after you leave hospital, within 2 – 3 days. If you do not have a family doctor or Paediatrician to take on your baby’s care please make your doctors and nurses at the hospital aware.
