LOL It was a great topic of conversation on Natural Parenting given we're a bunch of lactavists there. A friend of mine had sent her a pro-bf tshirt for her baby too!

I'll be interested to see what happens with how she feeds the baby since she was out buying formula according to New Idea just before the baby arrived.

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

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.
