No clues as to what you need to do Helen
I'm pretty slow on the uptake when it comes to computers.
Do you actually need ozmidwifery in your address book?
That is the one address that I tend to remember.
Just a thought

Hi ladies,

Hello,
You are sending and receiving just fine - we are all getting your posts and
if you are reading this, then you are receiving the list messages yourself.
Sometimes, as Fiona remarked, the internet itself is down - nothing to do
with the list itself. If this happens, you will suddenly get a
Dear Isis,
I have seen this occur on a number of occasions and it is usually performed
using 'alligator forceps' by an older obstetrician or a new OG resident who
is not confident to do an ARM with an amnihook. It's a bit barbaric in my
opinion and totally unnecessary! On the rare occasion when
Goodmorning
Although I have seen ARM performed with forceps I've never seen it being
done with the express purpose of trying to pull baby's hair or skin
(thankfully!).
Is it presumed no hair = no head ?!(as opposed to not engaged/bald,etc)
I wonder if the practitioner performing this procedure

Thats is what I feel about this Kristie...what happens if babe was
presenting face first and you pokes their eye out with this thing!? My
AROM had already been preformed and the dr used the alligator thingies
with me. It is one of the clearer memories I have of that stage of
labour. I remember
I have never heard of anyone being so insensitive
and stupid to think it is okay to pull out the babies hair. I know that many
people really believe that babies in utero don't feel pain which maybe is their
justification for doing this type of torture on unborn babies, the others are

You cannot get a ph reading off blood from the hair, so it is essentially a
useless procedure for gaining any sort of intelligence about the babies well
being, an you are right, what if it is not the head presenting, it tells us
nothing but that the practitioner doing it is dangerous, cruel and

I am so glad for the responses I have had so far. I had never heard of this
happening, I truly thought it was a joke being played on me. Yet for 2
different women in two different hospitals to share their experience of it
was mind

Hi all,
Thanks so much for everyone's suggestions and ideas. It's really helpful, it's
hard to know where to start to find things sometimes.
Kirsten - thanks! midwifery today is a great website. Have recommended it to my
study buddies. Maybe I should call us freak out buddies, esp when it
Hi Isis
Why would anyone want to subject the poor little fetus to such torture just to prove a point?
There are plenty of fetal epidermal cells and lanugo present in amniotic fluid if proof is needed. As for the head-down thingo, can't they palpate?
What a bunch of sadists!

Parvo virus in pregnancy can be a real nasty. At it's worst it can cause
the baby to get hydrops fetalis and be stillborn, at best nothing. In
between, it can cause intrauterine growth retardation- the reason for the
extra ultrasounds. I had a client with it during pregnancy and luckily she

Hi Cheryl,
I did this in my son's preschool class a year or so ago, and took a lovely
pregnant woman in with me and did an antenatal appointment with her. The
kids were absolutely taken with the pinard, and listened to their own
heartbeats etc. Talked a lot about what a midwife does, how we can
