Dear Mary, what a joy!  Congratulations to all of you :-)    and what a template for our birthing services...may all women enjoy/have an environment of loving care set up by midwifery "mothers", with the healthy sense of self and respect for others and their process/growth implicit in your modelling, so births can unfold in their individual perfection - roll on NMAP!     with deepest love and respect, Carolyn Hastie -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Mary Murphy Sent: Sunday, 11 August 2002 12:38 AM To: list; Kitty Ernst; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; darryl loney; Amy Bachrach; Lois Wattis; Tracy Reibel Subject: [ozmidwifery] Overdue baby Good News!  My daughter has FINALLY given birth.  19 days post dated U/s & more by LMP.  Gabriel  was born after a gentle 6hr labour and waterbirth at 1800hrs 10/8/02  weighing in at 5.2kgs. ( I think about 11lbs 4oz.)  Beautiful healthy placenta, 800gms, 200mls blood loss.
