We're pretty crap, not surprisingly. The latest OECD figures for c-secs I've seen were 2005, anyone seen 2006? We had a higher rate of c-secs in 2005 than the US. Try a search for OECD figures, they're pretty eye opening.

Hi All, I was wondering how Australia compares to rest of world re interventions into birth. I know its pretty *up there* on the grand scale but can anyone give me some other countries - either on the lower end or higher end above us. My guess is USA very high??............Netherlands/Austria/New Zealand?? down the low end. This is just to use is I'm asked in my CBE class!
