Yes Karen - the maternity nurse description applies here too - see www.mothersdreamteam.com.au for local descriptions. Pinky - Original Message - From: Karen Cole To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 18, 2002 5:54 PM Subject: RE: [ozmidwifery] POST NATAL HELP I worked as something similar to this in London, where it is called a maternity nurse, I was employed through nanny agencies mostly. Maybe that would be a good starting place. However, to work as a maternity nurse it was not necessary to be a midwife or even a nurse for that matter, it was sometimes just young girls with baby experience. So she should set out with a clear mind as to what qualifications she wishes the person to have. The job was live in, and was mostly baby orientated i.e.: bathing, feeding etc, but some small housework was involved, usually just by being a member of the household as opposed to job title.

She called this person a nurse maid. I thought that perhaps this would be a doula. But, I've looked on the internet for information on doulas and they seem to be birth partners".HoweverI have you as my birth attendant. ' Who is it who can stay with me and give me after birth support when I get home? Where do I look for this information? Because the biggest thing I seem to be combatting is the isolation, I think this is important to get handled. I spoke to my ob/gyn and she doesn't know much about doulas. Can you tell me how to go about arranging this after birth support.

It is an excellent read and promotes natural and self reliant approaches to pregnancy, birth and child rearing. There is also an article in the first one about NMAP and the push for the introduction of more widely supported midwifery services. If you want more info about it Sue has set up a website at www.naturalparenting.com.au. She is also looking for submissions. Myself and a midwife friend are going to be sending in some articles about birth interventions based on evidence based medicine so the readers of the magazine at least have some opportunity to make a truely informed choice - but if any of the rest of you have a particular interest area that you would like to write about with an aim to provide mums and mums to be with information and advice then send your manuscript to Sue - [EMAIL PROTECTED] This magazine is a refreashing alternative to the ones currently available I really hope it takes off.

[ozmidwifery] NO CASE TO ANSWER!
Dear list With a sigh of relief I heard some good news today that led me to give a heartfelt cheer for independent midwifery, the clients of independent midwives and especially for Maggie Lecky-Thompson who has always been a champion of independent midwifery. Today the court decreed that Maggie had NO CASE TO ANSWER to the allegations that she was continuing to hold herself out to be a midwife. I hope Maggie has her merriest Christmas ever as she soaks up the abundant love and support that her family provides. Best wishes from her friends and colleagues of ASIM and HBA.
