A situation that springs to mind about 'mental blocking of labour' is by a
midwife friend who told of a case where a woman was 'stuck' at 2nd stage and
her husband - while being of great support throught the labour - had the
midwife thinking about the effect he might be having on her. She asked
On the point of nausea in
general, are there cultures that report little/no nausea in pregnancy? - seem to
remeber it from a book of Shelia Kitzingers. As Rhona says - your body is trying
to tell you something in this very crucial time of pregnancy - rather like the
odd cravings people get

Hi Deb,
I have heard of multiple foetuses that have since
died in utero and while most get reabsorbed, some organs and bodytissues

very common (I believe 1:5 pregnancies start off as twins or more) and only one
Has anyone had a pregnant woman complain of heat or
pain at the site of a rountine ultrasound? My friend was always very
uncomfortable with U/S and said that the baby would always move as if to get

To Jo,
I am sure that periods will not affect milk supply - am I right in thinking
