Do they really need iv ab's, or are we over treating as usual? The vast
majority of these babies are fine. Maybe we should only be treating those
women with prom, not those in active labour, especially those with intact
membranes. Another reason for leaving membranes intact i.e. no arm's.

What your describing is the risk based protocol vs the culture based one.
UNfortunately the recent evidence shows more babies were missed using the
risk based protocol that the culture based one. This is all covered on the
web sites posted. Whenever you practice prophylactic treatments you are

Hi ozmidders
Just wanted to let the group know that the Insurance for Midwives Forum held in Parliament House Canberra 11th May 2005 was a huge success. Midwives present were able to establish more networks with significant others who could assist us gain true professional autonomy through
Hello everyone!
I was wondering if someone could please point me to some recommended

Agree Marilyn. I have seen a baby develop GBS. He was a normal birth at
term, good Apgars. No prolonged ROM. Became ill very quickly (within one
hour of birth), profound apneas brady's, collapsed died with 24 hours of
birth. A big contributing factor to his death was delay in starting him on
Hello Kelly,
The most succinct and up-to-date listing of the various drugs on offer for

Hi to my fellow natural birth advocates and enthusiasts,
I recommend viewing the documentary titled The
Weeping Camel filmed in Mongolia
and available for hire from Video Ezy.
It is a fascinating true tale about a ritual that is
performed if a camel mother rejects her newborn colt.

We had a baby recently that became very unwell with GBS. I believe that the
mother had PROM for quite some time. Had another case last year where a
baby died. Both cases though associated with prolonged rupture of
membranes. I have to say that now they are very jumpy with women with PROM.

The USA website has a lot of info on the issue of antibiotic resistance
which i think is very interesting. I actually bought a book on Streptococcus

You have probably already read this one but I thinks Nicky Leap's words of

I was out walking with my 4 year old daughter. She picked up
something off the ground and started to put it in her mouth. I took the
item away from her and I asked her not to do that.
Why? my daughter asked.
Because it's been laying outside, you don't know where it's
What about including the purpose of pain? That pain during the birth
process is normal and instead of being feared, should be seen as positive
and worked with!
There are some great articles out on that, including some work from Sarah
Buckley.

Kirsten,
I actually have Sarah's birth articles on 'Natural Third Stage' and
'Hormones Are Your Helpers' and I have also written an article on Natural
Birth emphasising that labour pain is good pain - it's here:
