Happy Sankranti 🥜🍯/ Uttarayan 🪁 to all who celebrate

In my home state, we share a sweet dessert containing sesame seeds & jaggery with this wish:
तिल गुळ खा, गोड गोड बोला
Meaning
May your words be as sweet as this jaggery

This, to me, seems like a good life choice #Sankranti

Birthing services should only be provided by appropriately trained, qualified and registered health professionals
Full stop 🛑
This should not be controversial

PSA for fellow Aussie medics: Reminder to renew your AHPRA registration if you have not already done so (by 30th September)
The process is more involved this year since AHPRA have introduced a portal that requires registration & 2 factor authentication

@DrLKVaughan Hard agree, Louella

@catherineroyuk YES 100%
If women never have the opportunity for these discussions, they will not be able to provide informed consent. True informed consent can’t & shouldn’t happen when the woman is in pain in labour. It should happen in pregnancy.
I can’t see how or why this is controversial!

‘The wrangle between overmedicalisation and the pressure to have a natural birth is a false dichotomy. Replacing one ideology with another does a disservice to women.’

@OrthopodReg Now to confirm the fax machine is also working…

If we had half the outrage over starving children, killing innocent people and denying basic healthcare as we do over eating with one’s fingers, the world might be a better place for everyone.
