[ozmidwifery] hep b @ birth
Hi , A number of staff in our unit have commented that babies who have Hep B immunisation just after birth seem much more unsettled for the first 24-48 hrs than those babies who don't have the immunisation .Has anyone else noticed this or are we just imaging things ?? Our unit has only recently changed to offering Hep B immunisation after birth at the same time as the Konakion,we used to give it on day 3 or 4. Interested in any comments or if anyone knows if any studies have been done .

Re: [ozmidwifery] co-sleeping
Hi Raelene, We have a policy that allows co-sleeping.We had more concerns about babies falling out of bed(did actually happen) rather than them being smothered by mums so our policy just makes sure the bed rail is up on which ever side of mum the baby is sleeping with a pillow against the bed rail so bub doesnt slip through.We regularly have bubs in bed with mums .Works well for both mums and bubs. All the best with getting a working policy Lyle [EMAIL PROTECTED] 22/01/2007 1:54 pm Hi everyone, I need some help! I'm trying to formulate a policy regarding co-sleeping and want to offer alternative sleeping arrangements for mothers and babies whilst in hospital. Does anyone know of a special cot that has been developed that allows the baby to sleep with mum but in a separate cot that is attached to the main bed. I've seen pictures of babies using a biliblanket in a cot attached to the bed in this way, but can't find any information. Can you help.

Re: [ozmidwifery] rooming in
Hi Brenda, Fully agree with you I have no problems taking babies to the nursery at night for mums that are totally exausted and giving them that little break they need .Wrap the babies up, put some Mozart on the CD player and they will often sleep for hours .Then change them and take them out for a feed when they wake or mums can come to the nursery and have a cuppa and chat with other mums that are up doing the same thing .Mums are encouraged to feed in the nursery at night were we have nice comfortable recliner chairs and it doesnt disturb the other mums in there room .There is a lot of communication goes on between the multis and primips when they get together to feed .We also have a video player in the nursery were they can watch videos like Follow me mum etc. Its also interesting to notice how much better the mothers are in themselves and with their bubs after those few hours of sleep.

Re: [ozmidwifery] temperature
Hi , We have not done rectal temps on babies or infants for more than 18 years. About that time we got terumo axilla thermometers and have continued to use them They are very accurate .I did some comparisions when we first got them between the axilla thermometers and rectal temps and found they were almost identical so have never done a rectal temp since .The Terumo thermometers calculate core temp and you wil find they actually go up and then drop back to the babies core temp Lyle [EMAIL PROTECTED] 05/18/05 10:35 am hi all there is a systematic review on the topic of rectal vs infrared ear temps in children on cochrane database the conclusion is as follows: 'The authors concluded that although the mean differences between rectal temperature measurements and ear temperature measurements were small, the wide CIs mean that ear temperature is not a good approximation of rectal temperature. They suggest that when body temperature needs to be measured with precision, infrared ear thermometry should not be used in preference to rectal measurement, which is the established method' personally i think its a very invasive and (for older children) embarassing thing for them to go through and as it says above should be done when the temp needs to be known with precision ie when they are very ill, not just as a routine measure. im not sure why they didnt include axilla temps.. love emily - Do you Yahoo!?

Re: [ozmidwifery] FW: Breastfeeding
Hi Barb, This was very good Thanks Lyle [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/18/05 6:44 pm Interesting, Carina and Denise, I feel breastfeeding advocates have been hoisted on their own pettard - for so long we sold the message that breast is best. Not the obvious, that breast is normal; formula feeding is not, and some risks. Risks which we may choose to accept, or may have to accept. Unfortunately guilt has become a blunt instrument with which to bludgeon breastfeeding advocates, and prevent sensible discussion of the real issues. As Denise said, occasionally, like any other part of the body occasionally breasts don't work. My son and I have asthma. (I guess I gave it to him as part of our genetic heritage) Our lungs don't work properly. Some-times I supplement him with oxygen, and everyday we both take drugs. I don't feel guilty about that. With my first child (not the asthmatic one - he of course was fully breastfed til 6 mnths) I got into a complete pickle. Work, lack of sleep, difficulty adjusting to my new situation. I was easily conned into believing my breasts didn't work. The formula flowed freely. Unfortunately the breastmilk did not seem to do likewise. I scraped through - breastfeeding and artificial feeding. Subsequent children have taught me that my breasts worked fabulously - but I did not have a good idea of what normal was.(they taught me that, too) I recieved liberal lashings of poor information, until I managed to access the support of the Australian Breastfeeding Association I don't feel guilty about formula feeding. I did the best I could under the circumstances, which were trying to say the least. In my volunteer work as a breastfeeding counsellor and my professional work as an infant feeding consultant I work with women every day. Not all manage to breastfeed, despite all our efforts. Sometimes I don't know why. Some-times I do. We don't live in a culture where breastfeeding is normal and understood. However, I do believe women deserve the information that formula has risks, and encouragement and information to breastfeed. I dispense info on weaning, and work to promote breastfeeding as normal and to increase society's knowledge of breastfeeding. I help mothers as much as I can, understand why it didn't work for them, grieve for a time of life lost, reflect on their experience and enjoy their baby, and not feel guilty about the decision they made, or had to make. Barb - Original Message - From: Denise Fisher To: ozmidwifery@acegraphics.com.au Sent: Wednesday, May 18, 2005 5:32 PM Subject: Re: [ozmidwifery] FW: Breastfeeding Hi Carina You've brought up some points that are good food for thought. It was a tragedy the day that milk banks were closed in Australia due to the scare with HIV, despite pasteurisation easily killing HIV (I wonder why sperm banks weren't also closed??). I note that a new bank is opening in WA and perhaps one in Melbourne. I wish them success. The incidence of physiological inability to breastfeed is somewhere in the order of 1 - 2 per 100 women. I don't believe with an incidence at this level that it warrants we guard everything we say to every woman. And then there's that really fascinating topic of 'guilt'. Can you induce guilt in someone? - maybe, if they really are guilty. However I don't feel guilty about something I have no control over. For example if I had no uterus I wouldn't feel guilty that I'm not adding to Australia's population, no matter how much Mr Howard exhorts me to. If I had no breasts or my breasts were not functional I would not feel guilty that I'm not breastfeeding regardless of how many people told me it was best. My opinion is that some health professionals don't know how to support women to breastfeed adequately and in covering their own feelings of guilt about this they 'pretend' that it's the mother they are trying not to make feel guilty. To give you lots of different opinions on guilt and breastfeeding do a google search using those terms. Have fun Denise At 03:23 PM 18/05/2005 +0930, you wrote: Some food for thought, What about the women who simply cannot breastfeed and cannot produce enough milk The wet nurse is still in existence in many tribal cultures where formulary has no influence. It's very easy to be passionate about something and sing it's praises when you have experienced success, but what about those women who don't succeed despite months of trying and perseverance. I, like all many midwives of course believe that breast is best and should be promoted as optimum nutrition for a baby but sometimes I believe that in trying to get this message across we need to be careful not to make other women lose their 'confidence ands fall into the motherhood guilt trap'.

Whether it is or not this is a call for you to become informed of the true state of the risks of C/S and repeated C/S for a C/s as supported in the International Cocherane Data and the WHO I suggest you start with the former or the web page below which reviews the NEJM article and the issues. http://maccorkl.home.sprynet.com/VBAClash.htm I think it is time program such as yours became more balanced or else change your name to the Medical report for so often as with this situation you only give a medical or disease orientation rather than a health or informed balanced picture of your topics.
