RE: [ozmidwifery] Midwifery led birth centres

2004-07-20 Thread Allison Hilbig

 Angliss Birth Centre no longer offers VBACs. They do refer women to a
 very supportive doctor for care.

That must have changed in the last few months then - because 
previously that had allowed VBAC and were very proud of that. In 
fact I had an urgent phone call late one night from one of the 
midwives because a woman was labouring in the birth centre and 
her TENS unit stopped working. So I did an urgent dash into work 
(just 5 minutes away) to grab another one for her to use - which she 
probably didn't need but we didn't want anything to possibly upset 
her perceived ability to cope. She was a VBAC and the midwife 
was very pleased to tell me the next day that this woman had 
delivered naturally an hour or two later. 
What a shame they (we) no longer offer that option in the one 
environment that is more likely to produce the required result of a 
natural birth.

Jane do you have information about the Family Birth Centre at the 
Angliss Hospital in Victoria? I'm not a midwife at the hospital (work 
in physio) but have given birth to my youngest child there. 
Waterbirths are available and they also allow VBAC there. 
Let me know if you need more details.

 Hi

 It has been ages (probably a year or two) since I have contributed to this
 list. Rejoined a little while ago to get back in touch with midwifery and
 birthing.

 I was hoping that you could help me. I am currently revising the book
 'Pregnancy For Dummies' Aust and NZ edition and  I am very keen to have a
 greater midwifery focus to this edition. Have decided to put a list of
 current Midwifery Led Birth Centres both here in Australia and in New
 Zealand as well as their contact details. Any information on Birth Centres
 that you can send my way would be much appreciated.

 Cheers

 Dear Julie

 Thanks for the tip. The ACMI list a good starting point, though the list
is
 not complete. It also appears to be an inclusive list, it lists hospitals
 that have midwifery run units that aren't necessarily 'Birth Centres'.

Dear jane

If you are presenting information on available birthing options in Oz surely
that would include the Caseload options available and the efforts to
increase these so clients in the future would have a lead on where they
might find out about those in the pipeline???
