Re: [ozmidwifery] ossification?

2005-11-20 Thread Robyn Dempsey



Hello Janet

The babies head does not 'ossify'! Just ask any 
chiropractor...they are still soft and able to be manipulated for ages. I've 
never heard such a lot of rubbish. If you think about it, the fontanelles don't 
close for 6-18months, to allow for brain growth. I think this Ob, is using 
his position to disadvantage the woman.

ossification?
  
  Hi all,
  Are there actually any studies into when/if it occurs? I've seen an 
  increasing number of women lately being told they *have* to have an ERC at 41 
  weeks or the baby will be too rigid to mold. Puh-lease! Any good sources I can 
  share about this?TIA

Robyn that's exactly what I 
think! But where is it written so it can be given as proof to mamas who don't 
know this stuff? I can't find anything : (

My Mum was induced for 3 babies 40 years ago for that 
rubbish,(head won't mould, baby too big, blah, blah, blah)some things 
don't change.

Contact the Osteopathic Association for some written proof, 
I'm sure they will have something for you. http://www.osteopathic.com.au/index.htm

good luck
Megan
