Hi everyone,
Ive just received a very excited email from one of
our great consumers here in Adelaide to tell me that she has had an article
about homebirth printed in todays Sunday Mail, entitled No place
like home for giving birth. Its on page 44. I cant
access it electronically but
Kristin you probably already know these things but
this is my understanding
There are no companies who will insure doulas in
Australia as far as I am aware, I looked into this 2 years ago. You could
contact contracting advantage to see if they are open to the idea, a bit harder
as we have
I saw that article it looked good. Congratulations
to the woman but she did nt mention that home birth was not for everyone as
there are some valild medical reasons why you cant birth at home.

I think this was a recent discussion? I
have seen if often enough to recognize it as a normal part of labour. some
women need 10 mins, some 2 hrs and even longer. It is all about being aware
and alert to the woman and babys condition. MM

Why do we need to label parenting styles? Or to
offer such exteme definitions?
This is about as much attachment
Hi
I have a friend who birthed last week at the Mater
and is having probs with flat/inverted nipples. Very damaged and is AF as of
yesterday. Sheis quite motivated to breastfeed.
Any one have any suggestions as to who she can see
up there? (had already been back in to the hosp and was told

Hi Louise,
Just a comment about rural maternity services or lack of!!
I am a midwife in a rural facility and was hitting
my head against the wall trying to get birthing back to our town. We have a
Midwives clinic which wasn't well attended and lots of times couldn't bring
postnatals back

Wow Di , what a fabulous story!
I have a doula client birthing in Jan. She
is from a place called Wee Waa and they have no maternity services. She is traveling
4 ½ hours to Bathurst
to stay with family
before her due date. There are also no
doulas out that way so I am traveling 2 ½
They have a hard enough time finding midwives to
work out that way too. My mum is a midwife who is working on contract at
Narrabri on a regular basis (Wee Waa is a bit over an hour from Narrabri I
think??) but as in most rural units there is very little choice of
care.
Cheers,
Di (L)
No, Maleny-Sunshine Coast. But I think the story is
the same everywhere. It is the consumers we need to get moving because no one is
listening to the healthcare workers.
I am still stunned at how quickly things have moved
since our girls(consumers) got their teeth into the problem. They have
I have seen it also and consider it normal. Psychology can play
a part. Two women, both friends, in the last year, waited at
that point for their rushed midwife to travel 60-90 mins to
reach them for the birth. Both started pushing within minutes of
her arriving. One at home, one at a rural
Tragic isn't it that so many of us know this
scenario in many regions over the country??
Would make a great documentary to travel around our
country talking to the women in the regions of their experiences with birthing
services, including those who have solved their problems with good
