Interestingly Lea and Janet, women who are relaxed, given plenty of opportunity
to talk about their lives and what pregnancy and parenting mean to them as part
of relationship based midwifery care also seem to avoid pre eclampsia - it
could be nutritionally mediated as well, as we spend time
Hello Sue,
I hope that your bathrooms also have a ventilation unit and scavenger
units for the N2O2 - this is dangerous stuff to use in unventilated
areas - see this for more info:

More to the point - while I know that it is common in
resending this and hoping it gets to the list.

Has she been in touch with the women from Birthrites? Someone could support her
to just stay home until labour is established which sounds about the only way

I'm kicking myself that I hadn't mentioned that earlier. She has a very
supportive husband and Mum, but is running into the comments of just have the

Well,..the bottom line is that she can only be caesared by
consenting to surgery. Kununurra cannot refuse to treat her (negligence) nor
remove her from their premises by force (assault).
If she does't want surgery she needs to stay away from the places where surgery

I agree Andrea and confess I was a little surprised to see the N2O2 in place
as I also thought that water immersion was preferable and an option to
medication. Yes, there is a scavenger (I think!!) As we are still not
allowed to use the bath all this is yet to be tried out. Thanks for the info
She is in Perth, 3000kms from Kununurra trying to make it happen.. I have
talked with her about options, and someone off this list is going to see her
this afternoon. I love how this list works, as my husband often says, we're
all sisters. Cath
