If you go to that website they have one of those poxy polls.
The question is
Do you think Caesarean section is
overused?
85% have answered yes!!

Hi All
Just to let you all know 60 Minutes is doing a
segment on the rise in caesarean section rates and particularly the
increase of post c/s hysterectomy.
I was asked to appear in my
capacity as MC Pres and as a Mum choosing a very different birth
option.
I was careful as to what I said. The Q�s were all in
response to C/S and none about my experience sadly, they wanted me to
�blame women� of which I did not, but tried to focus on the poor support
and general societal issues etc.
What is most significant is they
have included footage from my latest birth (courtesy of Nic Edmonstone�s
wonderful work). I believe there�ll be 50 seconds of the birth and I
hope the pictures literally speak 1000 words! There is also to
be footage of a C/S.
I ask that everyone e-mail 60 minutes with
short succinct letters, particularly highlighting how our broken maternity
system could be fixed. If there is a good response they should
feature 2 letters (usually only 1 per segment) .I will remind everyone
after the show!
I have worked very hard to get the best out of this
story (5 hours assisting them with their research!!) but they are
interviewing Molloy! Who knows he might be so outrageous he will
shoot himself in the foot.
Any way hope you can tune
in
