My next big thing is....

My new big project called for a fresh set of headshots. Fortunately my sister @craftyishgeek is (or was) a professional photographer. Every time we do a shoot there is always a lot of fun, some nonsense, and at least one cat close by. This time was no exception!

I sometimes hear stories of women who were told that because of (insert reason here) they have no choice and must have CTG monitoring during labour. That’s not true. Like any other medical intervention, you get to decide if it is the right choice for you. You’ll find lots of information on my website about your options and what the evidence says for each.

Have you been told that #CTG monitoring will stop you from being sued? Is it true?

What is she up to now? I've been working hard behind the scenes to make something new and wonderful and it's almost ready to share with you. Sign up here to be sure you are among the first to hear about it. https://buff.ly/3Z88TdH

Central fetal monitoring systems take each woman’s CTG data and display it, along with all the other women in the birth suite, in a central location where staff can see it. It seems Iike a good idea, but the little bit of research that has been done shows no better outcomes for babies and possible harm to women. You’ll find information about central fetal monitoring systems, and other aspects of fetal monitoring in labour on my website.
