OMG!  They really think they are God!   Hasn't Sarah Buckley has written an article on lotus birth?  Seeing as she is a doc might hold a bit of weight if this poor woman needs some support.   Jayne   ----- Original Message ----- From: Mary Murphy To: list Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2004 12:24 PM Subject: [ozmidwifery] Lotus placenta Does anyone have any information about infection in newborns caused by a Lotus Placenta?  A recent client of another midwife has been reported to the Dept of Community Services child protection unit because she is practicing lotus placenta with her newborn.  What a load of stress to put on a woman because the paediatritions don't know anything about it.  These are the same paeds who didn't know that it was possible for babies to be born in the caul.  Any information gratefully received. ASAP.  MM
