As a woman planning for a homebirth, I just went to my GP and got a prescription from her for a dose of syntometrine. I still have to go to the pharmacy to get it filled- hope they are as easy to deal with as my GP is J I do know my midwife has a GP who will write scripts for her, yet my GP is supportive of HB and I was happy to approach her for it.

Subject: [ozmidwifery] getting synto etc

 

I have a few births at home coming up and was wondering about synto and other drugs in my kit. How do others purchase them? Do I have to have a script from a doctor? The other issue that I do find difficult is the issue of cost for homebirth.Others I have been involved in have been for friends and colleagues. Does anyone have a schedule of payment and cost that they use? I am meeting with a couple on Monday and would love to have a bit more idea. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated,

 

Thanks Cath
