Thanks everyone for your responses so far re cord blood gases. It
will all be so helpful when we 'go into battle'.

HelloJustine,
I'll just say part of the same area health as you!
When I've got more energy I'll email you and get some more info on MC.
I think there were some local women who joined up, but they wanted more postnatal care family care cottage stuff, didn't care about 1-2-1 midwifery care.
Hi Barb
I had a client just last week for a
pregnancy massage. She is 31 weeks and this is her second child.
She breasted her first bub until she was about 18 months old. However,
she is TERRIFIED not about the birth but about her new baby
being given formula whilst it is in hospital.
I hope
she wrote to the CEO of the hospital. She should make it VERY clear this
time, in writing and I would put a big sign on the baby's cot. Is she
aware that she could take legal action? The threat is usually enough.
Women and midwives must take a stand because so many of the older
This is dreadful,

Ramona,
She may have to fight tooth and nail not to let the baby out of
her sight this time. Only way to make sure formula is not given.
Hope she succeeds this time.

Hi Di
It does get easier and easier as you teach and becomes more
comfortable and enjoyable. Yes it is making such a difference. Once the word
gets out you will have lots of pregnant couples I'm sure.
As far as I am aware Sue there are not any practitioners yet

Cord gases will be normal if it is an acute recent event, they are abnormal
if it has been a chronic ongoing event this is why they are useful in
