RE: [ozmidwifery] Good news
One of the possibilities for staffing the teams is that we are going to get our first lot of direct entry midwives graduating at the end of the year. These are going to be so excited to see continuity of care models and are going to be very willing to work in this way.

RE: [ozmidwifery] Good news
Hi Jo Elle MacPherson had a waterbirth in the UK for her second son it was written up in the June 2003 Aust Womens Weekly I kept it and put it in a folder to pass around my groups. Elle quoted as saying the water birth was amazing. It was a dark room with candles and very little distraction. Arki was there like he was for Flynn. I didnt need any painkillers or epidural for the birth but I did have my wonderful Indian obstetrician Dr. Gowri Mothra who did reflexology and looked after me. It was a very natural birth and I think your recovery is very rapid when you have no drugs in your system. When youre fit happy and relaxed that helps too! I did a search on google for jeyarani and then went to amazon and found the info below Book Description Childbirth guru Dr Gowri Motha, who practises with Dr Yehudi Gordon author of Birth and Beyond shows women how her revolutionary method helps women carry the baby to full term, have less intervention in the birth; feel less pain in labour, and feel happy and in control. Synopsis Childbirth guru Dr Gowri Motha, who practises with Dr Yehudi Gordon -- author of Birth and Beyond -- shows women how her revolutionary method helps women carry the baby to full term, have less intervention in the birth; feel less pain in labour, and feel happy and in control.; The Gentle Birth method is a concise pregnancy programme combining diverse therapies such as 'creative healing' massage, a simple diet, self-hypnosis, reflexology and affirmation techniques* The method was created by Dr Gowri Motha as an alternative to conventional obstetric practise, when she became alarmed at the increasing number of women needing intervention during their births. It teaches expectant mothers how to train their bodies and minds in order to reduce or prevent complications during pregnancy and labour.; This book outlines the Method, with a month-by-month programme explaining how to rebalance the body and tailor it to the optimum condition for the birthing process. It includes guides to treating problems such as: -- back pain -- nausea -- heartburn -- fluid retention -- stretch marks* The programme offers women a formal framework in which to prepare their bodies and so avoid facing a labour that is unnecessarily long, arduous and traumatic, with significantly lower uptakes of pain relief.

She now works alongside the birthing unit at the prestigious St John and Elizabeths Hospital and the NHS are increasingly looking to incorporate her methods into their own obstetric programmes.

Hi All, I was reading the Who magazine (task avoidance at it's best) and found a 'letter' from Geena Davis who had written in to correct an article that was written about her in a previous edition. She very proudly corrects them that she did NOT have a cs for the birth of her twins even if she was 48 at the time. She says that not having a cs is something she is really proud of well I am darn proud of her if that is the case! Also it announced Courtney Cox has had her baby Coco and says that she was born vaginally also. (well they don't use the 'v' word but you know what I mean) I would have pegged my money on her having a cs after the multiple miscarriages and long time in conceiving. the notion of a cs being the safest seems to run thick with women who have had similar experiences. On the last note it says that Elle McPherson attended a launch of a book "The Gentle Birth Method: The Month-by-Month Jeyarani Way Programme" Never heard of the book myself, but it seemed like there was a pro natural (or at least vaginal) birth subliminal messaging occurring thru the mag! Anyway, back to having to get ready for work...task avoidance over! cheers Jo
Re: [ozmidwifery] Good news
Jo, How bizarre! I looked over those very articles while on the checkout queue yesterday and almost bought the mag as a result (almost!). Did Justine Caines (or someone else Maternity Coalition) have some project going where endorsements were being collected from public people? I do think this is a very influential way to put natural birth in the public arena without threatening anyone about their past choices. Way to go Who magazine!

20040420-17Diet-controlled gestational diabetes mellitus does not influence the success rates for vaginal birth after cesarean delivery-American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology,vol 190, no 3, March 2004, pp 790-796Marchiano D; Elkousy M; Stevens E; et al-(2004) OBJECTIVE: We sought to determine whether women with diet-controlled gestational diabetes mellitus who attempt vaginal birth after cesarean delivery are at increased risk of failure, when compared with their non-diabetic counterparts. STUDY DESIGN: We identified 13,396 women who attempted vaginal birth after cesarean delivery among 25,079 pregnant women with a previous cesarean delivery who were delivered between 1995 and 1999 at 16 community and university hospitals. Analysis was limited to 9437 women without diabetes mellitus and 423 women with diet-controlled diabetes mellitus who attempted vaginal birth after cesarean delivery with a singleton gestation and 1 previous low-flap cesarean delivery. Data that were collected by trained abstractors, included demographics, medical history, and both pregnancy and neonatal outcomes. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to determine an adjusted odds ratio for vaginal birth after cesarean delivery success among women with diet-controlled gestational diabetes compared with women with no diabetes mellitus. We controlled for birth weight, maternal age, race, tobacco, chronic hypertension, hospital settings, labor management, and obstetric history. RESULTS: Forty-nine percent of the women with gestational diabetes mellitus and 67% of the women with no diabetes mellitus attempted vaginal birth after cesarean delivery. The success rate for attempted vaginal birth after cesarean delivery among gestational diabetic women was 70%, compared with 74% for non-diabetic women. We found that gestational diabetes mellitus is not an independent risk factor for vaginal birth after cesarean delivery failure. The relative risk for vaginal birth after cesarean delivery success in women with gestational diabetes mellitus compared with women without gestational diabetes mellitus was 0.94 (95% CI, 0.87-1.00). After an adjustment was made for confounding, the odds ratio for success with gestational diabetes mellitus was 0.87 (95% CI, 0.68-1.10). CONCLUSION: Women with diet-controlled gestational diabetes mellitus who were carrying singleton fetuses who had no more than 1 previous low flap cesarean delivery should be counseled that their disease does not decrease their chances for a successful vaginal birth after cesarean delivery. Among diet-controlled diabetic women, the overall success rate for vaginal birth after cesarean delivery remains acceptable, and attempted vaginal birth after cesarean delivery should not be discouraged solely on the basis of gestational diabetes mellitus.

[ozmidwifery] Good news!
Dear Everyone, To all those wonderful people who sent messages of love and support to our family - thank you so much, all those messages helped enormously. I did pass them all on to Sally and she sends her gratitude as well - she was quite overwhelmed at the level of support on this list. Thank you. Reuben was transferred to our regional hospital on Friday (70 k's away) and is looking FANTASTIC. He is now 37+2 gestation and will be 10 weeks old tomorrow. He is basically having all suck feeds - at the breast when Sally is there and EBM at other times, although he has needed the occasional gavage since his transfer as he's been a bit tired and had the occasional brady and desat. He does seem quite vulnerable to change and it takes him a little while to settle in. However, despite all that he's been through, he appears to be a very calm and cuddly little boy. He weighed in at a massive 2 kg! and has a nice little layer of fat. Now that he's off the HMF, he's lost that slightly bullfroggy look and his gain is more natural. Lovely to see him doing normal baby things - mouthing, looking for his fists to suck on, peeing and pooing everywhere, etc. Hopefully, we'll have him home in a couple of weeks and, as I've got 5 weeks leave starting tomorrow, I'll be able to catch up on cuddles. Of course, we think often of our Tilly and wonder what she would have looked like etc. - she will always be a part of our family. Tas, the 4 y/o, seems to have a very good grasp of everything that has gone on and has learnt so much over these 10 weeks. He is lovely and gentle with Reuben and often talks about Tilly as well.
