Re: [ozmidwifery] Almost c/s - horrid shift (VERY LONG!)

Thanks for your reply, Cheryl :) I must clarify that the 'control' I was talking about was the woman being in control of her pain.  She just felt that when the others were in the room that the contractions were getting out of control.  I know that we are unable to control many situations surr

[ozmidwifery] Re:consent forms

The forms are VERY new. I don't know how it works, I am sure there is someone on the list from KEMH who could answer. My guess would be that they only get them when induction is proposed or like the epidural one, when the woman is asking for the treatment. I am not sure. MM -- This mailing li
