birth in the media - for a change
Hi , I read that about Bec too. In the
suermarket line ( The only place I read them!!) hope she comes out and
gives more detail, she is a strong role model for lots of young Australian
women (tho Im not sure thats necessarily a good thing). I wonder if she
had time for her epidural or if she didnt plan on one? If all went really
well it would be great for her to tell the world.
Cheers Di

Subject: [ozmidwifery] normal birth

Hi all
I was looking through a recent women's
magazine while having my hair done yesterday (only time I read them!)
and was very pleased to see not one but two stories of celebs
having normal births. Bec Cartwright was quoted as having such a
speedy labour that she was in doubts of getting to the hospital on time,
and Rod Stewarts latest wife who had a drug-free water birth and
described it as "the most empowering and spiritual experience of her
life"
Not earth shattering news I know but
encouraging to read something other than surgical birth in the
magazines for a change, and good to hear celebs being positive role
models.
