Hi Janet, I remember one woman who would go outside for a smoke, come back inside and have a couple of ventolin puffs throughout her labour! Her labour kept going though. On the other hand there are two women I can think of that didn't go into labour until they cut back on their Ventolin and

Thanks, Mary and Honey. I've learnt
that it's via IV in large doses. A woman was told by her hb MW she couldn't
birth at home and have ventolin via nebuliser as it would stall/halt labour. I
can now reassure her that it's not the case.

I would assume that a hands off approach to assisting this woman with breastfeeding would be of benefit. What techniques do others use in the early postnatal period to assist with attachment, positioning etc without manhandling? (excuse the pun) What methods Can be used antenatally to prepare her.
They give injected ventolin before performing
some ECV's to relax a uterus do they not?
But perhaps intramuscular or intravenous is
different to inhaled???

Years ago (15?, 20?), I had a couple in my prenatal classes whose
baby was lying like this. They wanted a natural birth but had
prepared themselves mentally for a caesarean if the baby hadn't
turned head down at the start of labour. I gave them the information

Hi all,
can bronchodilators, particularly
ventolin, for severe asthma cause labour to slow or stall? Would it's
action of relaxing smooth muscle have this effect on the uterus or is an inhaled
drug (even in strong doses) too little entering the bloodstream for an
effect?

Makes me shudder to read this stuff.
I love how it's always OUR fault we get carved up because:
