I did the same as you Nicole until I woke up that the discussion on John Howard had nothing to do with birth. The frequency given on the notice was incorrect - it was for local ABC programs in the east. Had to go down into the 500s to get Radio National. This meant I also missed the first ten minutes of the program and could not for the life of me get on to have a say. The obstetrician was distorting the truth somewhat, especially with his comments of women "dribbling" and having other pelvic floor problems after vaginal births. He forgot to mention that this applied to women who had surgical interventions with their vaginal births.
