Gestational diabetes is a type of high blood sugar that develops during pregnancy, typically after the 24th week. It affects how your body processes glucose and can impact both your health and your baby’s development if left unmanaged.

While it often resolves after birth, gestational diabetes requires careful monitoring through blood sugar tests, nutrition, exercise, and sometimes medication. Early detection and management help reduce risks like high birth weight and complications during delivery.

If you’re pregnant or planning a pregnancy, discuss gestational diabetes screening and personalised management strategies with your healthcare provider to keep you and your baby safe.

Every woman’s journey is different, but here are some common changes you might notice after birth:

✔️ Breast changes, tenderness, or engorgement

✔️ Emotional ups and downs, including “baby blues”

The journey doesn’t end when your baby is born, postnatal care is essential for supporting your physical recovery and emotional health. In the weeks following birth, your body undergoes many changes: healing from delivery, hormonal adjustments, and adapting to breastfeeding and sleep changes.

A comprehensive postnatal check-up with your obstetrician helps identify any concerns, such as infection, postpartum bleeding, or mood changes like baby blues or postpartum depression. It’s also a key opportunity to discuss contraception and your overall well-being as you transition into motherhood.

Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths in or around the uterus, and while they’re common, their symptoms can significantly impact your quality of life. From heavy periods to pelvic pressure or frequent urination, fibroids often go undiagnosed until they begin interfering with daily routines.

We take the time to listen, assess, and personalise your care, from monitoring small fibroids to exploring medical or surgical treatment options for more complex cases.

There’s no one-size-fits-all approach. If you’re experiencing unexplained pelvic symptoms, it’s worth discussing whether fibroids could be the cause.

Healthy weight gain during pregnancy supports your baby’s growth and your wellbeing, but it’s not the same for everyone. On average:

🤰First trimester: Minimal gain, about 0.5–2 kg

🤰Second trimester: Approximately 0.5 kg per week

🤰Third trimester: Around 0.5 kg per week, with a focus on steady, balanced growth

Factors like your pre-pregnancy weight and overall health influence your ideal range. Gaining too little or too much can impact pregnancy outcomes, so personalised guidance is essential.

Gestational diabetes affects up to 1 in 10 pregnant women in Australia and requires careful management to ensure the best outcomes for both mother and baby. It occurs when blood sugar levels rise during pregnancy, which can increase risks such as high birth weight and delivery complications.

Effective management includes balanced nutrition, regular physical activity, blood sugar monitoring, and in some cases, medication. Early diagnosis and ongoing support are key to maintaining healthy glucose levels throughout your pregnancy.

If you’ve been diagnosed with gestational diabetes or want to learn how to reduce your risk, book a consultation to create a personalised care plan tailored to your needs.

Knowing the early signs of labour can help you feel prepared and confident when your baby’s arrival is near. Common signs include regular contractions that get stronger and closer together, a “show” of mucus or blood-tinged discharge, your waters breaking, and lower back or pelvic pressure.

Every pregnancy is unique, so some symptoms may come early or later, but if you notice any of these signs, especially your waters breaking or strong, regular contractions, it’s time to get in touch with your healthcare provider.

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine disorders in women of reproductive age, affecting up to 18% of Australian women. It’s also a leading cause of female infertility and is often underdiagnosed due to its wide range of symptoms.

PCOS is driven by hormonal imbalances that affect ovulation, and may present as irregular periods, acne, excessive hair growth, scalp hair thinning, fertility issues, and mood changes. It’s also strongly associated with insulin resistance and metabolic concerns.

If you're experiencing multiple symptoms, especially related to your cycle, skin, or fertility, it’s important to get a thorough medical assessment. Early diagnosis and tailored treatment can significantly improve your reproductive and overall health.

If you suspect PCOS or are managing related symptoms, book a consultation to discuss diagnosis, management, and long-term care options tailored to you.

Labour isn’t just a physical event, it’s an emotional and psychological journey. While the birthing person is at the centre, partners play a powerful role in offering comfort, advocacy, and reassurance.

From helping with breathing techniques and massage to communicating with medical staff and offering calm encouragement, partners can be a vital support system. Being present, informed, and prepared can significantly reduce anxiety and positively influence the birthing experience for both parents.

We encourage partner involvement in antenatal care to build confidence and connection before the big day.

Pregnancy is a beautiful journey, but morning sickness can make it feel challenging, especially in the early stages.

What is morning sickness?
Morning sickness refers to nausea and vomiting that typically occurs in the first trimester, though it can last longer for some. Despite the name, it can happen at any time of day or night!

Morning sickness is believed to be caused by the hormonal changes occurring during pregnancy, particularly the increase in hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin).

𝐓𝐢𝐩𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭:

✨ Stay hydrated with small sips of water or ginger tea

✨ Eat small, frequent meals throughout the day

Pregnancy is a beautiful journey, but it also requires special attention to your diet. One thing to be mindful of is Listeria, a bacterium that can cause foodborne illness and pose risks to your baby.

While Listeria infection is rare, it’s important to take precautions, as it can lead to complications such as premature birth or miscarriage. Here's how you can protect yourself and your baby:

✔️ Avoid Soft Cheeses & Deli Meats: These foods are more likely to carry Listeria bacteria. Stick to pasteurised cheeses and thoroughly cooked meats.

✔️ Cook Thoroughly: Make sure all meat, poultry, and seafood are cooked all the way through to kill harmful bacteria.

✔️ Wash Your Hands & Produce: Wash your hands frequently, and rinse fruits and vegetables thoroughly before eating.

✔️ Be Cautious with Ready-to-Eat Foods: If you must eat deli meats or pre-packaged salads, make sure they’re thoroughly heated before consumption.

By following these simple steps, you can reduce the risk of foodborne illness and help ensure a healthy pregnancy. Always feel free to reach out to Dr. Marcia Bonazzi if you have concerns or need personalised advice.

Did you know that Vitamin D plays a key role in both your health and your baby’s development during pregnancy? 🌱

Vitamin D helps your body absorb calcium, which is essential for your baby’s developing bones and teeth. But its benefits go beyond that! Here’s why Vitamin D is crucial during pregnancy:

✔️ Promotes Healthy Bone Development: Ensures your baby’s bones and teeth grow strong.

✔️ Supports Immune System Function: Helps both you and your baby stay healthy and fight infections.

✔️ Aids in Mood Regulation: Can reduce the risk of pregnancy-related mood swings or depression.

✔️ Helps with Calcium Absorption: Vital for building your baby’s skeleton and supporting your own health.

While you can get Vitamin D from sunlight, some women may need a supplement to meet their needs. Always consult with your healthcare provider about the right amount of Vitamin D for you and your baby.

We're dedicated to providing the support and care you need throughout your pregnancy journey. If you have questions or need advice about supplements, we’re here to help.

Breastfeeding is a learning journey for both you and your baby. It’s okay if it doesn’t feel natural right away. With time, support, and a few helpful tips, it can become a special and nourishing experience.

𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐚 𝐟𝐞𝐰 𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐢𝐩𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐣𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐲:

▪️ Get comfortable – Find a quiet space and use pillows for support.

▪️ Watch for hunger cues – Early signs include rooting, sucking motions, or restlessness.

▪️ Ensure a good latch – Baby’s mouth should cover more of the areola, not just the nipple.

▪️ Feed on demand – Frequent feeding is normal in the early weeks.

▪️ Ask for support – Your GP or midwife can guide you through challenges with positioning, supply, or pain.

Every feeding journey is unique—be kind to yourself, and seek professional help when needed.

If you have questions or concerns, Dr Marcia Bonazzi and her team are here to support your postnatal care.

Pregnancy is full of unexpected twists — physically, emotionally, and everything in between.

From craving food you never liked before, to suddenly needing a nap at 10 am — pregnancy has a way of surprising even the most prepared mums-to-be.

Some women say it was the emotional changes. Others mention the sense of smell becoming superhero-level strong. And for many, it’s how much their body changed in ways they never expected.

Every pregnancy journey is unique, and those surprises can be both beautiful and bewildering.

We’d love to know — what surprised you the most during your pregnancy? Drop your answer below. Your story might just reassure someone else who’s going through the same thing.

If you're pregnant or planning to be, our team is here to support you through every step, with personalised, compassionate care that puts you and your baby first.

The first trimester can feel like a whirlwind of changes, physically and emotionally. It’s a time of adjustment, and many of the symptoms you’re experiencing are a normal part of early pregnancy.

Fatigue that hits like a wave, mood swings that surprise you, and nausea at the most inconvenient times — pregnancy affects every woman differently, especially in those early weeks.

I loved my appointments with Marcia when I was pregnant with Julian and Antoni. We had such wonderful conversations and she always took such great care of me.

Aradhana

Dr Bonazzi delivered our beautiful girl Gracie. We couldn’t have been more happy with her care throughout the pregnancy and the day she was born! Looking forward to having Marcia care for us again next time.

Rebecca

Dr Marcia was amazing! When it literally came down to the push (and shove) she really delivered. Thank you for getting my 3 little cherubs into this world safely and looking after me too.
