Hi Katy
From a naturopathic point of view –
when treating any skin conditions, we go back to the digestive system and the
liver. If the gut and accessory digestive organs are not detoxifying as well
as they should be, then elimination will occur through the other eliminatory
organ whic
I've been told by GP that eczema cream with
steroids in it is no good for nipple breast area (where the skin is fine) as it
can thin the skin over time - likewise inside of elbows etc...
keeping well moisturised - lots of sorbelean is
good - as drying makes itchy makes scratchy makes red ma

Hi Louise
I agree with you.
What we need to do is capitalise on the PHI stuff though (esp now that insurance is on the horizon).
There is still no choice in PHI and no reason to have PHI in rural areas. But in the advent of a private midwifery expans

Hi Louise and others,
No eating alive to be done from here J but I did want to
comment on this one…the thing I think I find most offensive about all of this
is that it just carries on the charade that the women are paying for, and
therefore getting the ‘best’ care. Women have been conne

Hi, They could have helped the women much more by
providing midwifery care at home. They do have a one off visit (because
the hospital can access the fund from the insurance for it) but sending a
midwife into the womens home after discharge to check up on them is more
productive and cheape

I agree with Kelly as the woman has to have a nvb it may help our cause to decrease LSCS and IOL?

I agree Mary - also when it is so damned hard to
get ANY funding for postnatal care, or breastfeeding support, or community care
at home for women, especially with postnatal stays of 2 days and so many
women have had interventive births. G!

To try and extract any good of this
though, I wonder, if it will encourage more women to aim for ‘normal
vaginal births’ - as per the article, only those who do will be allowed

Hi Katy.I had great success with "Kenacomb" ointment for my nipple trauma and subsequ\\\ent infection and thrush. It is to be used VERY sparingly, but worked wonders. It has an antifungal, antibiotic and a steroid in it. I think it is still prescription only, though. HTH!JoOn 19/09/2006, at 2:3

Hi Katy,
My first thoughts are: does she know what triggers
the eczema? It may be worth looking at an elimination diet to rule out some
things. Look at Sue Dengates website . www.fedupwithfoodadditives.info/
Also consider the washing powder or fabric of her
bra/clothes. Many are treated with
