Compassionate Care for Women Experiencing Pregnancy Loss 💔🌸🤍

  • You can seek support at any stage—whether you’re currently experiencing a miscarriage or you have recently experienced one (in the past 6 weeks).

  • Partners are welcome to attend the appointment with you. Miscarriage can affect both parents deeply, and having a safe space to share the experience together can help you both.

  • Sometimes, the cause can’t be identified, but we can explain common reasons for miscarriage in clear terms and help you understand what (if any) investigations might be needed for future pregnancies.

Miscarriage Support and Debriefing

💔🌸🤍

Dial a Midwife … we’re here for you - all the way

Miscarriage is a heartbreaking experience. For many women, it brings not only physical pain but also intense grief, confusion and unanswered questions. You may feel sadness, guilt, shock - and sometimes, the hardest part is that the world around you doesn’t always acknowledge your loss the way you wish it would.

At Dial a Midwife, we provide Miscarriage Support and Debriefing for women who are going through - or have gone through (in the past 6 weeks) - pregnancy loss. Our goal is to offer a safe, compassionate space where you can share your story, receive clear information, and begin to process both the physical and emotional sides of miscarriage.

This service is completely free with a Medicare card and is designed to ensure you don’t feel alone during this deeply personal journey.

Our miscarriage and pregnancy loss service Offers …

✨ Emotional support – time to talk through your experience with a midwife who truly listens.
✨ Clear, reliable information – about what happens physically during miscarriage, what to expect and when to seek medical care.
✨ Answers to your questions – understanding why miscarriages happen (and why they are almost never your fault).
✨ Looking ahead – guidance if you’re thinking about trying for another pregnancy.

Why This Support Matters 🌷

Pregnancy loss is often minimised or misunderstood. Some women are told to “move on” or reassured that they can “try again soon,” but this doesn’t address the very real grief, emotional experience and questions that can linger.

By giving yourself space to debrief with a caring midwife, you can:

  • Feel heard and validated in your experience.

  • Receive non-judgmental support tailored to your situation.

  • Gain confidence and reassurance about your body and your future fertility.

  • Start the process of healing emotionally and physically.

You’re Not Alone

Every woman’s miscarriage story is unique, but no one should go through it unsupported. With compassionate guidance, space to talk and practical advice, Dial a Midwife can help you find peace and begin to heal. Remember - our service is free with a Medicare card for women who have experienced miscarriage within the past 6 weeks.

Accessible and convenient

No matter where you are in Australia, you can book a telehealth (or phone) consultation with your midwife. We offer video and phone consults for women in the privacy and comfort of their own home. For new parents and families in rural and remote Australia, it is comforting to know that a midwife is only a call away. 

Highly Trained Midwives

All of our midwives are not only registered with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia, but also endorsed. Endorsement is available to midwives upon application after completion of at least 5,000 hours of practice and obtaining additional qualifications. Endorsed midwives have a Medicare Provider Number and PBS Prescriber Number. 

Our midwives are experienced in all settings - clinics, public hospitals, private hospitals, birth centre, homebirth, private practice and obstetric services.

available

We offer flexible times for appointments and if you need a same-day appointment, we will always try to accommodate you. Use our service as little – or as much – as you need. We encourage continuity of care and would love to be by your side, online, as you journey through your pregnancy and experience the first few weeks with your new baby. We offer home visits for Sydney-based patients (an additional fee may apply).

Bulk-Billing – free care for Medicare card holders

If you have a Medicare card, our phone and video consults are fully covered by Medicare - there is no out-of-pocket fee or gap with a Medicare card. We’re unable to assist if you are outside of Australia or if you’re currently in hospital, and without a valid Medicare card, a small fee will apply.

Supplement your care

We’re super keen to bridge the gap in care between going home from hospital with your baby, and the 6-week check. We also know from experience that many women feel anxious, leave appointments with unanswered questions and find it so helpful to have a single, trusted midwife on the end of the phone throughout pregnancy and for the first six weeks after the birth of their baby.

midwifery continuity of care

Ad private midwives, we offer care for women as early as a missed period, throughout pregnancy and for the first 6 weeks of baby’s life. For many women, our service will provide the only source of continuity and consistency throughout their birthing year.
