Thankyou, Barbara Stokes, Parkes, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Barbara... why is a policy needed for this??? We don't have policies for women sitting on chairs in labour...using the toilet....  May I ask whose asking for a policy for their use...and why they think they need one?? Just interested and trying to figure out a context for this....my gut says medico legal?? If so... then this is policy gone mad!! Yours in birth, Tina Pettigrew
