Hey There Thrivival | Twin Pregnancy, Multiples, Motherhood & Parenting Podcast
If you're a family with twins, triplets or in the community - this might be one of the most important episodes. We’re joined by Silje Andersen-Cooke - lawyer, triplet mum, and National Chair of the Australian Multiple Births Association (AMBA). Silje shares her personal triplet journey and why she’s now one of Australia’s loudest advocates for twins, triplets and higher-order multiples, pushing for equal government funding, consistent medical care, and real support for families navigating high-risk pregnancy, NICU, childcare and school systems. Whilst this is Australia focused, the same issues are globally relevant. We hope this helps all our listeners become more educated, and advocate for a "fair go" in every country. We will unpack why twins still aren’t officially not recognised as a “multiple birth”..(!!) in Australia, how this impacts parental leave, healthcare access and cost of living, and why support for multiples has actually gone backwards since the 1970s. Silje also explains what AMBA does, how they support families nationwide.
