"Water Birth Option for Kalgoorlie Mums"

I truly believe it’s time for Kalgoorlie Health Campus to offer a water birth option. We are one of the only hospitals in Western Australia that still doesn’t have this available, and I think it’s something that would make such a positive difference for so many women in our community.

I understand water birth is known to be an amazing, calming, and empowering way to give birth for both mums and babies. It’s heartbreaking for me that we don’t have this option here, especially when Kalgoorlie is the main hospital in our region.

I believe that many would love to experience a water birth without having to travel all the way to Perth or Esperance, spending extra money and time away from home. I think it is simply not fair that we don’t have the same choices as other families in WA.

I know there are many wonderful midwives here who I believe would also love to offer this experience and support local families in this way. Please, let’s bring water birth to Kalgoorlie. I think our beautiful community deserves this option.
