a
woman in my singing group is planning a vbac ... I just heard she visited
her Gp today only to be told she would HAVE to have a CS as she has a
haemorrhoid and it may rupture and she may bleed to death!
I'll
be seeing her tomorrow...

Subject: [ozmidwifery] vbac &
birth centres again
Alright, sorry listers
it is that time again when I get really pis*&d about vbac exclusions
from birth centres again. Sorry to harp but I have to vent!!
Why
is it that my right to chose an elective surgery for reasons not based on
medical evidence is adhered to without further questions or dispute and that
right to choose what happens to my body is backed by society.
But if I want to exercise that same right, but to chose a vbac and a
vbac that is not medically managed, I am flatly denied.
Tell me this is not
discrimination!
SOME of us have
the right to chose, SOME of us gain the support for our choice, SOME have
the last say in our care...
but
as long as it suits policy!
Why
is it that if someone wants to birth by cs due to fears of complications
that occurred last time, this is considered a valid reason. but if I
say I don't want continuous monitoring based on the inaccuracy of ECG
readouts and their direct influence of increasing the cs rate...that is
not good enough to be respected and supported???
PLEASE!
Some one tell me what is wrong with
this!!!!!
I
am disgusted and saddened by Flinders Medical Centres decision to not allow
vbac in its birth centre. It is a sad loss for vbac women....
midwives,
lets hope there is a resolve to the insurance issues, cause I know for sure
that if vbac is continued to be refused from BC then home birth vbacs will
be on the rise.
