Does anyone know about a trial at the WCh Hospital in Adelaide where the
pregnant women have many more ultrasounds than usual? Not sure what the
trial is about, or the purpose, but a friend of my Mum's is 13 weeks, and
spoke the other day about being part of a trial where she gets to see her
baby
For those who are feeling their age.

are women not being told about the pelvic floor
exercises these days? I have had many women say that they want a cs to
avoid stress incont. It has been shown that it is pregnancy not mode of
birth that impacts the peri muscles (unless being butchered with a pre-emptive
episiotomy).

Just give the WCH a call and ask for the clinical trials department and ask
who ever answers the phone. They should be able to tell you more.

Dear Robyn,
Thanks for the reply. I thought it was interesting how your first labour turned out
like it did after hearing that you had a straight sacrum. The power of the
subconscious hey? It's fantastic that you succeeded in having a water birth at home
the next time. I think our bodies are

How about a BRAVO to Dr Dickinson for her comments!
I wish most of my patients had labour like this, Prof Dickinson said.
Clearly, Ms Sheppard has a magnificent pelvis.
Prof Dickinson said there were no indicators which suggested a caesarian
section would have been advisable.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]??? I have this problem with other bigpond subscribers too sometimes...so I will persevere...just wanted to acknowlege your thoughts and to say thanks...hopefully my response will get thru soon.
Dear Sarah,
You are so totally right about the subconscious.When I asked the
reflexoligist how I could prepare myself for my next pregnancy to avoid the
same birth otcomes due to the shape of my pelvis, she suggested to get an
epidural early. Not the advise I wanted to hear!!

Thank you, Alice. Why can't everybody be like

forgot to! I was watching in a mirror and was so in awe of the physical feelings

I'm not too fussed whether it is salaried or contract but believe the

Dear Pete,
That is the rub
With out PI it is precarious being in private practice with out government

So the question of how this is done is important to all midwives and

I am cross-posting this posting from a National Childbirth Trust (NCT) list that I am on in the UK. This is timely given the bit in the newspaper today the CS rate in WA is nearly 27%. The UK government are committed to reducing the section rate and it is heartening to actually see
Interesting point Aviva. Must think on it.
I like advocating the use of the birth stool for shy woman as it is a very private position and have had women progress well there when it had been slow or non existant in other positions. I know some of that could be attributed to the upright position

feeling of having a babies head crowning, "Ring Of Fire" it
is!
