Joyous Birth has listings for private midwives as well as links to community hb groups nationally. Due to the now dicey political nature of hb, particularly in QLD, it's members only. So send women our way if they want that info. It says on our website that we provide that info. : ) J ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <ozmidwifery@acegraphics.com.au> Cc: "Kelly @ BellyBelly" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, September 18, 2006 11:30 AM Subject: Re: [ozmidwifery] Midwife Directory Cancelled...

With awareness of only very mainstream sources I had a VERY VERY difficult time finding an independent midwife. One of the places I looked was in mainstream forums but I had no luck there. At that time I knew no one who knew anyone who had had a home birth and did not know where to begin looking for a care provider. > > A Midwife Directory on a site like Belly Belly could help someone in that situation. The existence of a Midwife Directory would also help to inform people that there IS such a thing as an independent midwife. Four years ago I thought a midwife was a nurse who helped doctors deliver babies (cringe). > > Rachele > -- > This mailing list is sponsored by ACE Graphics. > Visit <http://www.acegraphics.com.au> to subscribe or unsubscribe. > -- This mailing list is sponsored by ACE Graphics.
