Subject: [ozmidwifery] ACA Painless Birth Show
Tonight!!!
Hey all
A Current Affair ran a segment tonight on
why so many more women are choosing the pain-free birth of caesarean
section. The Angliss Birth Centre represented the other side, but I
think the convienience queens were given a better showing
(IMHO).
The most disgusting part of the show was the pros and cons
presented by Dr Ric, yes RIC Gordon, (was a presenter on Good Medicine!!).
The ACA site has a �fact sheet� which is a joke and a spot for voting on
if you would have a c/section or not.
If you can handle it please
look at it and vote!! There is also a feedback section for what it�s
worth!

Dear
Lois, Deb, Justine et al
I have voted. The score was 180 for YES,
339 said NO and 24 were unsure whether they would opt for a
C/S.
EVERYONE SHOULD RESPOND TO THIS ONE AND LET THE COUNTRY KNOW HOW
THEY FEEL ABOUT C/S. We are only getting the views from women who have had
their babies within a medicalised model of care.
I have left my contact
details after suggesting that ACA present the other side of the story and ask
Australian women why they want NATURAL BIRTHS with the specialists in natural
birth ... Their midwives.
