Homebirth is safe



Homebirth horror headlines?

The AMA president Andrew Pesce thinks homebirth is unsafe but we know better.


Our first family protest.


My daughter was very excited.



Junstine Caines was interrupted by heavy machinery.



Its hard not to feel weary after each protest wondering why people can't see how natural things happen in the best way when left alone. And its strange we have to fight for our choices to do things naturally.

My Birth, My Choice

 Just a few things on the latest in regards to the amendments that will affect homebirth and therefore birth choices in Australia.

My husband, the 2 youngest boys and I supported the rally which took place in Werribee at Julia Gillard's MP office. We are in this video at about 40 seconds.



It was a good turn out on a rather warm day. I am feeling quite bitter and let down about the Goverment's lack of understanding of what this will mean for women and society. I am concerned for my daughter in particular, she deserves to choose for herself.




Every woman, every choice
