Hm, was just on the phone to a friend
talking about when this would get posted on here...Pinky are you on this
list? lol!
As if parents need more pressure to sleep and have
children that should be sleeping through. Too much focus goes on how many hours
a baby sleeps or if
Hi,
Thought I would post a link to this for anyone that may not have seen it.
The policy certainly challenges much of the popular thinking about sleep
training and such.

I can't believe, thatpeople believe,
that a three month old should be able to put herself back to sleep??
Sorry, I misread the age of the child and she was 7
months when they went to Tresillian. Still far too young in my opinion, she
still has such a tiny tummy and babies usually wake if
Hi Nicole,
I think Sue Cox has written something about this.
Don't know the reference though, I'm sorry. At my workplace if a babe has not
breastfed for six hours we express mum and give it from a syringe or teaspoon.
We continue to express and feed every three to four hours until babe shows

Hi Abby
I have personally been to a family care cottage (similar to Tresillian from what I understand) with both my children. As far as I am concerned they were wonderful. I also have friends that have been down to Tresillian and have come back different people due to the sleep they are now
Hi Abby
Just saw the email with the Australian Association for Infant Mental
Health position paper, and one sentence jumped right out at me!
The references below are not specifically to studies on the impact of

Hi Nicole,
I'm not a Midwife, but my 3 year old , born at home, had a feed within an hour
after birth and his next feed was something like 32 hours later. We were all
fine about it, but we did discuss that had we been in hospital, it would have
been managed. How do you make a baby feed that
I would just like to say how inspiring, powerful and darn
right amazing the new midwives from the grad program are! I went to the Flinders
Uni Grad ball on Saturday and was overcome with pride
for these amazing women! Despite the
pressure, uncertainty and so forth, they are ready willing
Jo wrote: Often if the baby is mucusy (causing reluctance to feed) they
will unfortunately likely be given a stomach washout... I thought that
the mucous contained glucose and that was why the 'mucousy babies' didn't
feel hungry. I would be happy to have this clarified if I am wrong. I

Hi Mary and fellow ozmidders,
Often C/section babies are 'mucousy' and reluctant to feed, however I have
never seen a low PGL on a 'mucousy' baby.
Cheers,

Dear Helen,
Interesting comment on the following of hospital policies
- when I re-read the email the policies seem to be dependent on 'who the Midwife
was on duty'.
What about changing policy that is invasive, unnecessary

I am a newly graduated Certified Midwife working in a

of breastfeeds required in the first 24 hours of a healthy term newborn. If a

This is a really scary story. For parents to think that a 3-month-old should be able to put themselves back to sleep! It does make me laugh that the journalist thinks Tresilian's 85-year-old practice should be highlighted. What happened to keeping up with the latest research?

Dear All,
Regarding a (healthy, full term) baby feeding in the first 24 hrs. If the
babe has had a feed soon after birth we do not worry for at least 12+ hrs.
NEVER EVER take a BSL unless baby is symptomatic. This has never occurred
though.
If babe has not had a feed soon after birth we
