Title: Re: [ozmidwifery] Proved 'im wrong
Wow, Judy - you go, girl!  This woman will probably never know how lucky she was to have met you.  But we know.  You may be proud of the woman, and with good cause, but I feel so much admiration for YOU for standing up for this woman's rights and providing her with information and trusting in her body, and just being there for her.  Well done.

I am so proud of the woman I looked after today. 20 yr old primi and when I took over her care she had been in for a couple of hours. Full of fear and at 38+ weeks with ruptured membranes. Fully believing she could not have her baby naturally as her doctor (GP) from way out of town had told her that her pelvis was too small and she would definately need a CS.
I spent time talking to her to find out what she REALLY wanted and told of the possibilities, I told the OB what I had said and she backed it up. Tenatively this woman agreed to try for a natural birth. Her labour was not without interference because of the fear but the end result was a normal birth with a midwife and proud and happy parents.
