Higher order multiples (HOMs) are triplets or more and come with their own unique issues and challenges. Our HOM contact is a parent of HOMs and is available to answer questions and help put you in contact with support services and help organise donations such as:
- Babycare products (Johnson and Johnson)
- Baby food (Heinz)
- Nappies (Huggies)
- Infant formula if needed (Wyeth)
HOM families may also be entitled to practical assistance from Red Cross and Wanslea – which have volunteers who can help for a few hours per week. This is assessed on a needs basis.
It is also recommended that HOM families contact Centrelink promptly in regards to the Multiple Birth Subsidy.
