[ozmidwifery] Magazine horror story

[Andrea Robertson]

Hi kisters,

It has just come to my attention that *She* magazine has published a special edition that is being distributed in hospitals in huge piles for a free giveaway. The cover story is *She gives birth* and, you guessed it, the lead story is *Too posh to push*. The whole magazine is obviously designed to push caesarean births and obstetric care.

If all of you who work in hsopitals could check every place that these magazines could be lurking and remove them it would be a service to women. In the hospital I heard about, they were found in the antenatal clinic, physio department, labour ward and general waiting area in maternity. They are all now safely residing in the re-cycle bin - about 700 in all. What a waste of paper and what an insult to women (but what a clever marketing idea by the medical fraternity!!)

Please get cracking everyone....

Andrea
