look at this! Really no hope for birth Centres -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Happy Hogarths Sent: Monday, 13 November 2006 1:15 PM To: ozmidwifery@acegraphics.com.au Subject: [ozmidwifery] No Births at Ryde Birth Centre Hi,   My sister is booked in to Ryde birth centre and has two months to go of her pregnancy. She has just been told that the Obs at Royal North Shore have told the midwives at Ryde that there are to be no more births there until further notice! This was, apparently, with no discussion with the midwives at the birth centre. All women who are booked in there are 'allowed' to receive prenatal care there but 'have to' birth at Royal North Shore so a specialist can be on hand.   THIS IS AN OUTRAGE!! I am so sick of womens rights in childbirth being taken away. My sister has very few options as she can't afford a homebirth and has now missed out on going to another birth centre.   Did anyone know about this? It seems to have been kept very hush hush.   Love Abby -- No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
