This reminds me of what a woman was told in private antenatal classes that rating pain from 1 to 10 with 10 the worst pain you can imagine, then labour will probably sit at about 20. How's that for getting the adrenaline going and inhibiting endorphins! No wonder some of these women walk in a

Hi everyone,
I really need some constructive advice here...if we can't garner enough

subjected to unnecessary VEs which midwives will be obliged to perform to
remain inside Southern Health Clinical Guidelines.
Thanks

Recently a friend of mine had twins
at our large teaching hospital. She did not want an epidural or any
interference whatsoever. She was pressed for induction and asked for the
information leaflet from RACOG and the hospital’s consent form. She
read it at 36 weeks and said “what woman

Just to add to this...
There was an extremely heated discussion at a meeting with docs and midwives
where I work about how doing a VE is the only way to ascertain progress in
the normal labour of uncompromised healthy women. The midwives now have to
come up with evidence showing that doing a VE

options available for pain relief during labour have increased dramatically

I found this on the RWH website – in the section about
the con’s of epidurals:
“6. Some people believe that epidurals may
increase the duration of labour, or increase the likelihood of needing forceps
or a Caesarean section. The evidence for or against this belief is very
controversial.
Well, we (midwives) still use that as a general

to look at the policy manual but believe that is roughly what it states. Can't
do this at the moment as am on holiday and off to Bali next week
