Laurie Kobler at Integrity Dental in Dural
and Baulkham Hills does the procedure - I think he is the one Di was
referring to in her email. 

Monica Hogan at Westmead Hospital would be worth
contacting for information and support. She was part of a research project into
TT in the UK, and very nice as well! 

Contact me privately if you want her email
address.

Hi all,





advice for a woman whose first baby had a severe tongue tie that
was never diagnosed until way too late by which time bf had just not worked for
her at all. She's pg again and looking for support just in case this one has TT
as well but has been told she can't have it fixed straight after birth but has
to go on a waiting list to get it done. This makes her pretty anxious after
last time's hellish experience.





She's in western Sydney. Any ideas?





Much appreciated!

Yep was Laurie Kobler, just couldnt find where I 
had written it down? It may well have been Monica that I was thinking of in 
Sydney, it was someone who had been involved in a trial, if I brush the cobwebs 
away I may even remember more!

Re: [ozmidwifery] Natural Birth

2006-05-18 Thread Stephen Felicity
Or is she trying to establish the percentage of births that are intervened 
with that actually genuinely NEEDED the intervention? That would be nigh on 
impossible to obtain honest statistics on...


In terms of how many women actually get to birth without intervention, I 
know the Hospital figure is somewhere around 3 - 5%, but can't remember 
where the research substantiating that figure lies...anyone? A dismally 
small amount, in any case.

Re: [ozmidwifery] Natural Birth

2006-05-18 Thread Andrea Robertson
The WHO recommend that the Caesarean rate should be no more than 10% 
in a population of healthy women (that is no, pre-existing medical 
conditions etc). They also recommend that inductions should be no 
more than 20%. Their assessment is that 80% of women can have a 
perfectly normal uncomplicated birth with no interventions at all.


The reality is,  if you include drugs for pain and oxytocics for 3rd 
stage, then my guess would be that fewer than 5% of women in a 
hospital settings (and maybe even less than that) have no 
interventions at all. In fact, the only ones to escape completely 
might be those who give birth in a birth centre, if they decline the 
oxytocics for 3rd stage.


It's a bit sad, considering we are a healthy, robust population of 
women, on the whole.
