Chrysanthemum Festival Dazaifu Fukuoka Japan. I love getting off the beaten track and off the tourist path and finding authentic experiences. It sharpens the mind. The Japanese way of perfection has these flowers the best the world can see. The beautifully dressed kids aged three five and seven are said to be half God and half human and it is a time of celebration for them and their families. 🫶🇯🇵🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒

Helping parents like Courtney (@personallycourtney

Helping parents like Courtney (@personallycourtneyy ) and Matty IS mine and the teams' passion! We are so glad Courtney felt safe and cared for in her journey which led to a positive pregnancy and birth. Thank you for sharing these sweet words and photos of baby Levi with us 🤗

"The best thing about my pregnancy was having a healthy & safe pregnancy, being able to feel my baby boy kick. Made me so happy. I miss the feeling already. The best thing about birth was being able to meet my beautiful healthy baby boy Levi. My partner & I cannot thank James enough for such a magical experience of bringing our baby boy into the world. We are beyond blessed with our little bundles of joy. James is very professional & passionate about his line of work which we are so grateful for. We would like to thank not only James but also Alex & Gina for being absolutely amazing & helping us along the way with our journey."

Have you and your partner checked in on your mental health?

This is just a friendly reminder to check in with your partner. At the same time we thought we would take the opportunity to explain how we check in with you using the EPDS!

As always please reach out if you have any questions or concerns and we are always here to give support if needed 💕

Yvonne with her two beautiful boys 🥰 With baby

Yvonne with her two beautiful boys 🥰 With baby Isaiah taking us all by suprise with his early arrival it is so good to see everyone looking so happy and healthy! Well done Yvonne 👏💕

James delivered both of my sons: Xavier who is now almost three, and Isaiah 2 months corrected. I had a very different pregnancy and birth experience both times. Xavier came at 1am on my due date, while Isaiah came 11 weeks early, totally unexpected! It took even James by surprise, we still don't know what has triggered his early arrival but here we are. Both times, James and his team had been kind, empathetic, and the utmost professional. I am so grateful to have had been under the care of James and his team. I can't recommend them enough."

"This was my second pregnancy led by Dr James and his team, and we couldn't have been happier. First was with our son Ivan and now with Kosta. With some early on complications and pre term delivery, we knew we were in safe hands with James and the team. The nurses at Hurstville private were also amazing every step of the way. We are so grateful for the amazing care we received!"

Lining up the DUCKS. Another rewarding week in Obstetrics. I say for every 100 families there are 100 different stories. In the office this morning lining up our ducks. I love it and will never stop trying to do our very best. Grateful for every story shared.🐣🐥🐤🦆

We are sure many of you by now have met our new midwife Natalie who has been working here on Tuesdays or you may have seen her in the maternity ward where she also works. She is a wonderful addition to our team and brings experience, intelligence and kindness (our favourite combo)!

Thank you @belinda_sara87 for sharing these sweet

Thank you @belinda_sara87 for sharing these sweet photos of baby Sienna with us and for your kind words! We feel so happy to have cared for you and all the mums we have come through our doors. We hope you are enjoying your family, congratulations again and we hope to see you again with those butterfly kicks for baby number 2!

-What was the best thing about your pregnancy and/or birth? "Having a healthy pregnancy and feeling the butterflies in my belly. Knowing that my little princess was kicking and moving about, brought so much joy and happiness. I am already missing this feeling.
We can’t thank Dr Opperman and his team of angels enough for our smooth pregnancy journey. From the first consultation all the way to the delivery, Dr Opperman was professional, compassionate, his calmness and expertise made me feel confident and well cared for. We will miss our visits with the ever so amazing Dr Opperman. We can't forget to mention and extend a further thanks to Alex, Kathy and Gina for being so dedicated and such caring professionals."

-Is there something you would like to share with other Mums? "Try to enjoy every moment of the newborn journey as time goes by so fast and our babies grow up too quickly."

-How did you learn about James’ practice?
"Dr Opperman was highly recommended to me by my GP four years ago. Way before my pregnancy journey even began. I wanted to be prepared early when the day came 🙂 So grateful for Dr Opperman."

It’s great to be back.😀 Here with Lauren, our lovely Alex and her warm support and baby number 3. Beautiful Molly to complete the family.
We agreed that it was sad not to be having any more visits in the rooms but in Lauren’s words: “ It would be even sadder to be back with number 4!” 🤣🤣

Hi my name is Hannah and I help James manage his Instagram page 😊 I have spoken to many of you and you have been kind enough to share your pregnancy and birth experiences so now it's my turn!
In June I had my second baby with James, my beautiful baby Margot was born via emergency c-section. We tried for a V-BAC but it wasn't meant to be for a few reasons but James as we experienced the first time and as everyone always says kept us updated and informed of our choices and situation so even though things weren't straightforward we were never worried!
The best thing about my pregnancy was feeling more connected to Margot and excited to have her compared to my first pregnancy. I couldn't imagine how it would feel being a mum the first time so knowing the joy and love to come the second time was a lot more exciting for me.
We owe so much to James for looking after me and my family again!

A Great holiday together. Memories locked in. Time
