Description
- Lana Dillon
I view pregnancy and birth as normal, life-changing events and feel very privileged to share this amazing journey with you and your whānau. I aim to develop a strong partnership with you, empowering you to make informed choices about your experience through information sharing and by providing individualised, safe care. It is important to me that you feel supported at all times, especially as you adjust to having a new baby at home.

Have been a registered nurse for 30+ years and now a registered midwife. Have worked in Rotorua for the last 3 year as an LMC. Prior to this worked at North Shore Hospital as a midwife in the birth unit and post natal ward.

Your stay at a birthing centre or hospital after giving birth will usually be up to 2 days, or 2-5 days if you have had a caesarean. During this time you will have regular visits from your midwife and be supported to care and feed your baby. After the birth you will be tired and busy getting to know your new baby. Most women who have had a normal birth stay in the hospital or birth centre for 48 hours. If you have had a caesarean section, the usual hospital stay is 3-5 days. There may be an option to have your postnatal stay in a primary unit if you have given birth at hospital. Some women choose to go straight home after birth, this is called a planned early discharge. Talk to your midwife about your postnatal stay and make sure your family know what your plan is.
