What's it like giving birth in Australia during the COVID19 pandemic? 

Continuity of care is so important to a woman having a baby.  How is it possible when face-to-face care is becoming more and more rare? A woman almost always has to be in a small room for longer than 15 minutes while in labor, so how is the actual birthing process working? 

The Quicky decided to find out the new reality of having a baby, particularly in Melbourne while Stage 4 Lockdown is in place.
