I am so pleased to hear this.
I found it very hard not having continuity of care with my last pregnacy. I dont think I saw anyone twice even the same ob! I was dealing with a vbac and continuity would have made a big difference to my stress etc.
having had my first baby in NZ I cannot believe how backwards Australia maternity system seems to be, so yes this is actually a big step forward! Yippee.
Thats exactly what has held me back from wanting to VBAC in the public system as there are no continuity of care options available in my region (apart from the birth centre which doesn't take on VBAC's). And that's why to me, the new legislation is so great
