Hi all,
I'm a CBE and have had a call from a lady with twins looking to attend the course I'm running. Seeing I've never had much to do with twins (preg, birthor babycare) I was hoping some of you could shed some light on some important points or issues that I could pass onto her.
Thanks so much,

I really like the idea of not being in that sterile hospital environment
after I've had my baby - a luxury hotel room and a bit of pampering sounds
like a pretty good way to relax after childbirth, Ms Lynch said yesterday.
Being at home sounds even better to me!

Not quite the same, but my mother was 9 months
pregnant when she died of a heart attack at the age of 36. The baby she

I have had a client whose mother died following the birth of her younger brother. She was four years old and home alone with her mother 2-3 days after giving birth when her mother unable to get off the couch sent Mandy to get a neighbor. She claims to have no conscious memory of the incident but

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
to use the program.

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 forwomen, especially with postnatal stays of 2 days and so many
women have had interventive births. G!

More infant deaths with elective C-sections
A new study has found a higher risk of infant deaths among infants born by Caesarean section to mothers who have no medical need for the procedure.

This is my first post for a long time so don't eat me alive!
I agree with Kelly as the woman has to have a nvbit may help our cause to decrease LSCS and IOL?
Also - as much as we would like all women to have 1-2-1 midwifery care ( sheesh where I work we have no ante natal clinic, no
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 cheaper

Hi Louise and others,
No eating alive to be done from here J but I did want to
comment on this onethe 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 conned
Exactly Lisa, its business! Its
all about the dollars for them. But for the families, the idea of five star
treatment after birth is very, very appealing. Its clever marketing isnt
it? As well as outsourcing for what they dont have room.
You say you cant see what the
attraction is to a
Yes, I liked the phrase "needed a caesarean".

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
