I only had one premmie he is now 7.

My kids are 9, 7, 5, 4. and now all at school.

My oldest two live in Darwin with their dad (long story) The oldest will be living with me next year.

What are your thoughts on Flinders? I thought they where realy good exept for my wanting to stay over night with out telling them.

I think that more mums should be midwifes we know that things are different for each birth but somethings stay the same and I don't like midwife that tell me that I don't know my own body.

I don't know what flinders is like, I've only been in Australia two years.

I know what you mean about midwives who haven't had children. I was induced for my second and 1 hour after I had the gel I said to the midwife that I needed the gas and air but she didn't believe that I was in labour so she told me to have a bath, I persisted and she said well I can either examine you or you can have the bath. Anyway she examined me and I was 6 centimetres so she dashed out the room and came back with another midwife and a baby cot. I was annoyed at the time because she didn't believe that I was in labour, as if anyone can mistake that pain :chuckle

Not that I think you have to of experienced labour to be an effective midwife, but I do think they should listen to their clients.
