Hello wise women,
I posted a few weeks ago about a friend of mine with a
breech babe at 37+ weeks who was thinking about an
independent midwife for support at East Gippsland
hospital. I promised to update you so here goes...
She had SROM at term with SOOC soon after. Laboured
beautifully at
Hello all,
thanks for all your suggestions, I have passed them on
to my friend, who is feeling very positive about the
birth now after a few weeks of uncertainty and worry.
Special thanks to Andrea, I believe she will be
calling you over the next couple of days.
Will let you all know how it
Hello Listers,
I am putting out feelers for a friend who is 37+ weeks
with her first babe. Her little one is frank breech,
had unsuccessful ECV this week.
She is birthing at West Gippsland Hospital and has
been attending the midwife led programme there. Now
she has graduated to a 'high risk'
led' models off the ground around the
country in the first place! To me this is a much more
challenging problem than what we call them if/when we
finally get them up and running!
Just my thoughts,

I totally understand, Susan about the whole fear of
breech birth. We have a couple of OBs who will 'let'
women birth a breech babe vaginally, but fully
managed, IOL, 16 gauge bores in both arms, hartmann's

seems torture. I am a second year Bmid
Hi Jo,
I totally empathise having suffered this condition
when breastfeeding my fourth child, after feeding the

Hello all,
I vividly remember warning our elderly neighbours
about the imminent home birth of our first child. They
said 'make all the noise you like' and I did. Birthing
my second babe on a hot summers day, i knelt in the
birth pool and hung my sweaty head out the window in
an attempt to catch
Hi tania and all,
I missed the story as I was at work and can't find the
transcript on the website. Does anyone have more info
and maybe a link to get further info on this so called
research. i'm sitting at the computer fuming with
rage. love, miriam (2nd year FUSA)

While I deplore the fact that any woman would be
refused care due to her size, I do understand the
issues for clinicians and other staff.
I recently had a follow through woman with a booking

bad cellulitis in her right leg. She was cared for by

I am a 2nd year Bmid student intending to go into

From a student's perspective any discussion on what

hi there,
it is standard practice in our scbu, for all

i have questioned this practice several times and the
answer is usually that 'its necessary to establish

but spoke some months ago to a fellow Bmid student who
came across it while on a clinical placement at a free

Hi Sharon,

I believe all midwives and midwifery students should
first ask themselves whether or not they want support
from and association with any party that endorses a
candidate who claims on national radio/print media/TV
that all lesbians are witches and should be burnt at
the stake. Maybe time to tread
Hi there list and especially megan,
I also performed my own VE's in labour with my 2nd,
3rd and 4th sons. I was in the water and felt the need
to have a tangible focus for my own progress. I told

This book was a revelation to me pregnant at 20 with
