Enough is Enough – Women’s Rights NOT Medical Interest
Women, not the AMA will decide what happens to their bodies.
The AMA is a lobby group dedicated at advancing the interests and incomes of Doctors, they have no interest in the needs or safety of women.
Homebirth is a legitimate right for women. We say back off AMA, stick to what you know, Drs pay-packets and we will do what we do best, protecting the rights of women to make the decision best for them.
Come to support women and their families. Bring your placard and your story for the media.

BACKGROUND INFO: The Medical Journal of Australia will release a report into homebirths in SA over 16 years to 2006. The paper is a fraud, it is politically motivated and unable to draw any significant conclusions (Will be available on the HBA website soon). Nonetheless the AMA is about to launch a major media campaign using incomplete or inaccurate information. How much longer will health policy and women’s choices be dictated by Australia’s medical union??
This is the best thing I’ve read all morning.
