Re: [ozmidwifery] Birth, Trauma Personality
Hello everyone, these are great resources Judy, thanks for sharing them. Bernig Mauger's books are great, she is an amazing woman with the work she does. The evidence is overwhelming that babies are affected and their brain/personality shaped by what happens during pregnancy and at birth and of course, after birth. Babies, whether in the womb or out of it are emotional creatures and respond to their environment emotionally. They (and we) learn through our emotional experiences both good and bad. Our neurology is wired up (neural networks) by how we feel about things and prenates and neonates are the same. The APPAH is a very interesting organisation and their website is fascinating www.birthpsychology.com Dr James Prescott's work on the origin of violence and peace http://www.violence.de/ the Association for the transformation of the lives of children is also excellent. http://www.atlc.org/ and then there is touch the future http://www.ttfuture.org/services/publications/power_of_love.htm Michel Odent's womb ecology http://www.wombecology.com/ there are books like The Developing Mind: How the brain and relationships shape who we are by Dr Daniel Seigal and there are lots more warmly, Carolyn - Original Message - From: Judy Chapman [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: ozmidwifery@acegraphics.com.au Sent: Saturday, July 29, 2006 6:04 PM Subject: Re: [ozmidwifery] Birth, Trauma Personality Have just found these: http://childbirthsolutions.com/articles/pregnancy/birthsoul/index.php http://childbirthsolutions.com/articles/pregnancy/lifelong/index.php Cheers Judy Kelly @ BellyBelly [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Help!

[ozmidwifery] preparing placentas
I have prepared a couple of placenta's for eating over the next few months after birth. I washed them thourougly so that the water ran clear then cut the placentas into small "capsule"sized pieces. I then wrapped them into individual pieces of foil and froze them. The women both said that if they felt a day warranted it, they would perhaps take an extra piece. Both were very aware of PND and a need to avoid it. Cath
Re: [ozmidwifery] Birth, Trauma Personality
Hi Kelly I read an article earlier this year on some research done on suicide and it was found that often the method used was linked to birth. e.g cord tight around neck (hanging), heavily drugged birth (drug overdose) etc. Here is a really good website on perinatal studies, pregnancy and birth memories: www.holistic.ie/amethyst/documents/suicide.htm We already know that a baby's hearing is fully developed at 18 weeks gestation so just imagine what they are listening in on, especially in the birth room and the horror birth stories being told. regards Diane Gardner Kelly @ BellyBelly [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Help!

Re: [ozmidwifery] Birth, Trauma Personality
Diane, this is a wonderful website, thanks for sharing this. I'm writing a chapter on the fetal experience and the sequelae of what the fetus experiences and feels about it for a book on Birth Territory. What is explored and explained on this website is part of what I am writing about. It is very exciting that all this information is coming together. Dr Bruce Lipton's work on cells is amazing, as it Dr Candace Pert's work. Dr Frank Lake was a stunningly advanced and profound thinker, his ideas are extraordinary in the way he posits the maternal fetal distress syndrome and this is before the modern scanning devices which clearly demonstrate mind/body communication systems. Bruce Lipton's work can be accessed from his website www.brucelipton.com Two videos which are helpful in explaining quantum physics and our cellular life are what the bleep do we know? and The Secret. Both of which I recommend to anyone to buy and explore the ideas expressed in the videos and how the ideas translate to midwifery or doula practice. You can get the bleep from Amazon and The Secret from Nibbana on the net. www.amazon.com www.nibbana.com.au This is a very exciting time to be alive as we now have fantastic information at our fingertips. warmly, Carolyn - Original Message - From: Diane Gardner [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: ozmidwifery@acegraphics.com.au Sent: Sunday, July 30, 2006 9:12 AM Subject: Re: [ozmidwifery] Birth, Trauma Personality Hi Kelly I read an article earlier this year on some research done on suicide and it was found that often the method used was linked to birth. e.g cord tight around neck (hanging), heavily drugged birth (drug overdose) etc. Here is a really good website on perinatal studies, pregnancy and birth memories: www.holistic.ie/amethyst/documents/suicide.htm We already know that a baby's hearing is fully developed at 18 weeks gestation so just imagine what they are listening in on, especially in the birth room and the horror birth stories being told. regards Diane Gardner Kelly @ BellyBelly [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Help!
