I was just rather belatedly pleased to discover that my open letter to Nicola Rixon on cover for homebirth midwives was included in the Twelfth Down Under Feminist Carnival, back in May.
And on that subject...
A quick refresh:
Two pieces of legislation are combining to mean that midwifes will be unable to legally attend homebirths in Australia from 1 July 2010.
July 4 - that's next Saturday - is a national day of action organised by the Maternity Coalition. (The link takes you to a facebook page about it, which is all I can find so far).
And on Monday Sept 7, Homebirth Australia has a major rally planned, in Canberra (outside Parliament House) from 11.30am.
