We are all on a journey, and I focus mine on progress, collaboration, creativity, and achievement. This quote sums up the difference between those who share my outlook and those who don’t. #InspirationalQuotes – at Dublin City, Ireland

At whose expense? Many women plan their birth (why wouldn’t you?) the system lets them down, then the staff chuckle? Wow. Ask women who this has happened to @QuashieMichelle @birthpositive @AIMS_online @Csectioninfocus @EmmaJaneSas 😞

The process of making a birth plan allows you to consider these scenarios. Many elements of a plan e.g. skin to skin or optimal clamping can be kept in almost every situation.

For example, why don't we talk about the hideous disrespect for women shown on this thread? If docs talk like this in a public forum, what are they saying in private? Mocking women for trying to take charge of their birth? #enough

To ask women how they feel, not a routine aspect of antenatal care. Shame are we afraid of feeling? Emotional labour of midwifery #ICMLive
