Research in South West of Western Australia...

Maternal Persistent Toxic Substances Exposure Study

ECU, The Arctic Assessment and Monitoring Program, The University of Western Australia, the Institute of Child Health Research and the National Measurement Institute are conducting research into maternal exposure to persistent toxic substances (PTSs) in the South West of Western Australia.   The study aims to find out about the levels and types of substances that people are exposed to. We have chosen pregnant women for our study because they will provide information about exposure in women and also their child. Below is some very general information about PTSs and on the back more details about this study.

Belly flower client feedback:

 

 

 

"Loved it!"

Mel (Mother Baby yoga) March 2010

 

"Just wanted to thank you so much for the massage course, we have been
doing it everyday and Bonnie just seems more content and sleeping awesome."

Janelle (Baby Massage) February 2010

 

"Fantastic information, I really feel more confident and empowered"

(Nurturing Birth & Baby workshop) September 2009

 

"Great workshop - really good info and great environment to be able to ask questions.  Thanks!"

(Nurturing Birth & Baby workshop) September 2009

 

"In case you need reminding, it is fantastic to have a business like belly flower in the region, you are providing a really important service for women that is not readily available elsewhere. I think the combination of the nurturing birth workshop, the couple of pregnancy yoga classes I attended, plus the BirthSkills CDs really helped give me the grit to have drug-free birth. I am still surprised I managed to do it!"

Tracey (August 2009)

 

"Really enjoyed the course and the great sense of humor.  Great balance of information on labor and postnatal care.  The delivery of the information was great and effective, in a non-condescending way"

(Nurturing Birth & Baby workshop) March 2009

 

"Brilliant workshop, we feel a lot more confident now, thank you."

Mel and Jamie (Nurturing Birth & Baby workshop) September 2008

 

Giving birth is a natural, wonderful thing for women

 to experience.  BirthSkills gives us back the confidence to experience birth as it should be...without fear."

(BirthSkills workshop) July 2008

 

This "Gave me a better understanding of birth and for my husband , it was great!  The homebirth video was amazing"

Rebecca and Craig (Nurturing Birth & Baby workshop) June 2008

 

"Informative, interesting and refreshing.  Knowing that birthing your baby can be natural and empowering"

Beth (Nurturing Birth & Baby workshop) June 2008

 

"Thank you!  I feel blessed to learn from your experience and feel empowered by it"

Nicky (Nurturing Birth & Baby workshop) June 2008

 

What did you enjoy the most?  “Learning that pain does not need to be involved in labor"

Amber & Wayne (Nurturing Birth & Baby workshop) March 2008

 

"We really enjoyed the emphasis on pain free birthing, the options for natural pain relief and non pushing"

Merome & Blair (Nurturing Birth & Baby workshop) March 2008

 

“Excellent source of information and skills in preparation for birth.  The workshop has increased our confidence in birth.  Without this weekend workshop I think we would have been mere passive bystanders  in an unenjoyable, clinical baby extraction.  Now we will be active participants at our child's birth”

(BirthSkills workshop) November 2007

 

"Thank goodness for yoga breathing.  I just kept reminding myself to breathe as you taught me (during my labor)"

Sam (Pregnancy Yoga) December 2007
