Just as a comment in response to those who are appalled about not having a midwife (btw - I don't for a second believe that the woman was 'going it alone' with her pregnancy. I think the story twisted it.) But anywayyyy, I'd go through a pregnancy without a midwife. I don't think they are absolutely necessary. On the scale of the general population, yes, but on an individual level - nope.]]> Wed, 05 Mar 2008 09:02:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15024&PID=318264&title=oh-gandt#318264 <![CDATA[Oh GandT... : I had given up with Lily and resigned...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15024&PID=318227&title=oh-gandt#318227 Author: newmum

Completely agree with you BS regarding papakura/south Auckland midwives ...I had a close brush with early labour at 37weeks and was put in Papakura maternity ward with one of my midwives (was with a group of 5, this one in particular i'd never met previously). She did nothing to reassure me baby was going to be okay, I had green gunk oozing out and she couldn't even tell me what it was ...Infact all 5 midwives were useless but thats a long story.

Luckily I changed to Greenlane Community Midwives & me wee boy was born at National Womens Hosp (thanks to a wonderful shift midwife,OB & registrar), and then transferred to Birthcare Parnell (can't recommend that place highly enough). SO GLAD I made the change at 38weeks. Papakura Maternity Hospital is definitely not up to scratch!

And OMG can't believe that story, Porchestor Road is about 2 mins around the corner from where we live (we are in the good area though LOL)

Had to edit ...argh spelling errors
