Hi everyone, My friend had a baby boy last night by c.s.
I have spoken with her this morning.
After being seen by a wonderful midwife from this list, she rang and cancelled
the caeser booking for yesterday morning and went into what sounds good labour
after a sweep.
. She couldn't talk much
resending this and hoping it gets to the list.

I used to read a book to my kids called "sophie"by
mem fox I think. It was a lovely gentle book about a special grandfather dying
and provoked lots of discussion in our house with my three girls about dying. It
speaks from a cycle of life perspective with birth showing hope and new
way too familiar to me after having worked in the
Kimberley for the past 3 years. It is awful how the "necessity"of being shipped
out is worded to these women. It is one of the reasons that I left there.

Hi,
I'm not sure if this has been mentioned previously.
I have just seen Saturdays Australian (I live in a remote part of Australia and
get the paper days later)regarding an invitation for public comment on pg
7.,.into review of maternity services in QLD. There is an email for
information.
If up to 25% of births are by c-section, why were
75% of those interviewed discussing the benefits of such. Normal vaginal birth
is just that, normal, side effects- healthy woman, healthy baby.
Midwives are the 'experts' of normal birth- where
was their representation?
