Hi Mary
GMP - Graduate Midwifery Program. My assumption was that these are offered
Australia wide, but perhaps it's just a South Australian thing?

I am just not used to speaking in abbreviations and whilst I know what it is
when it is spelt out, I don't recognise the shorthand. Thanks, MM

HI mary
I agree, I am currently on suspension because I tried to shortcut the system

Dear all,
It would appear that the trend for health
professionals to attempt to use child abuse allegations upon women who seek out
appropriate midwifery care or wish to complain about their care is spreading far
and wide. This link is to a media release cited on the Association for
From that study.."The central conclusion of this study is that the
number of intended pregnancies should be factored into consideration of primary
elective caesarean delivery or attempted vaginal birth after caesarean, said
Dr. Silver of the University of Utah, Salt Lake City.

Donna,
Have you considered or are you able to get the woman involved to contact the
ombudsman and the minister's office of the state or territory you are in ?
If you are in NSW this method of discipline towards you and control over a
womans rite to choose her primary caregiver is in complete
Public hospitals are there to serve the public. Hospital administrators can
set all the policies and protocols they like but ultimately it is the
woman's choice (as long as she is informed) to select her care. It is up to
practitioners to document their recommendations and if the woman chooses
Julie who was the midwife I kept telling you they work in fear !!! Such
a different bunch of midwives there !!

This comment always gets people riled up but from a consumer's
perspective it would be great if we could divide midwives in to midwives
-those who practice as to their full scope of practice; and OB
nurses-who only wish to act upon doctor's orders -no initiative, no
accountability, no autonomy.

Does anyone have any information about whether the
contraceptive Implanon has any effect on breastfeeding? Baby is 4 weeks old and
feeding well.

Hi Jackie
All the progesterone-only contraceptives are safe to use while
breastfeeding; ie the breastfeeding baby will apparently not be adversely
affected.
However, some mothers are more sensitive to progesterone than others, and
these mothers may find they have a small to marked decrease in
BTW is implanon now approved in Australia for breastfeeding
mothers??
I was told it was. It didn't affect my
milk supply. I had it inserted at 8 weeks, and removed after a year (due to
intolerable side-effects!)
Kate
Hi Jackie,
It is quite safe to use Implanon when breastfeeding because it is
Progesterone only - the same as the mini pill and Depo Provera. Oestrogen is
the hormone in the combined oral contraceptive pill that is contraindicated
when breastfeeding. Interestingly the progesterone acts on

Is there reallya 10% risk of uterine puncture? I've not
seen that stat yet ( or did I have my eyes shut? LOL).
As for the vasectomy - nothing is fool proof and I personally
know 2 people who had failed vasectomies where they magically regrew back
together (the body is very clever!).
Hey guys!
Dean is absolutely PARANOID about me getting pregnant again despite his
vasectomy! A vbac client/friend gave me
a gorgeous pendant with a primitive birthing woman figurine. She is in fact a
