This is an interactive Optimal Maternal Positioning workshop.

  • What OMP is, how it works and why you should do it

  • what your partner can do to help you during pregnancy and during labour and birth. It is a very hands-on workshop!
  • how to help relieve those pregnancy aches and pains

You will walk away with:

  • A series of practiced exercises you can do in just 15 minutes a day

More about Ros:

Ros McDonough

OMP Educator Midwife

I have over 25 years of experience as a midwife working in the South Australian public health system, primarily at the Queen Elizabeth and Women’s and Children’s Hospitals in Adelaide. 

Over the last ten years I’ve been running a community-based antenatal clinic for public health and have particularly enjoyed seeing mums returning for subsequent pregnancies with their growing family.

In 2015 I received my Childbirth and Parent Education certification which recognises my role in educating new parents (individual and group education). I love working with new parents, but now I’m able to teach more practical tools and skills to women and their partners without being limited by time or public funding.

I completed a  Masters of Midwifery in 2017, which informed my work as an academic at Flinders University teaching postgraduate midwives about investigations and diagnostics.

I believe it is my role as a midwife to provide women with the best possible care and make sure they are empowered, supported and encouraged to make informed, confident choices about their care. I’m here to help you harness your inner strength and build self-confidence as you journey through pregnancy and early parenting.
