Yes Jan
Some years ago in Bankstown hospital - a similar thing happened.
The patient did not want to go to theatre and asked the obstetrician what alternatives she had.
The obstetrician was willing to go along with conservative management. i.e.
• cutting the cord short
• providing antibiotic cover
I agree, after just being told by the obs that he
would not see me if I continued with my independant midwife - to protect himself
from potential litigation - I needed to read this and be reaffirmed that I am in
control! Thanks
Living in hope

Dear Joh,
Who is this Ob working for? Is he keeping your best interests at heart? Is he breaking his Hippocratic Oath (if he still makes such a thing?) that states he has "To keep the good of the patient as the highest priority?"
I think it's time to get another obstetrician, if you need one.
