I wonder does this mean that the UK SIDS UNICEF brochure on cosleeping
safely will be withdrawn? I never quite understood why we are supposed to
be back sleeping advocates whilst the same organisation overseas advocates

I just wish we had their C/S rate!! Ours is about 5 times that lately. The other week I counted 18 out of 30 women on one ward had had the chop - there were also a few antenates, believe it or not! We're a
Rachel, you raise an interesting point.
One of our obs was talking to a woman in clinic last week, she is 4'9 and
baby is posterior and not engaged at 39 weeks (primip) so he was advising
her to go straight for C/S - now I do not necessarily agree that she could
not deliver - given some time
Hi all,
I had a woman come through my classes last
year and the ultrasound report said 2 vessels in the cord and she was told it
could mean an abnormality in the baby and it caused her to be so frightened she
nearly drove herself and everyone around her insane with worry.
Anyway the

I wonder if he told her that it would be better for her baby if she
experienced some labour - even if she then had a c-section. Although I doubt
that option would fit with his schedule.
I also think that it is a shame that women are missing out on the option of
an assisted vaginal birth due
I have experienced 4 assisted vaginal birth myself. The second was dreadful,
and injured the baby, dislocated his neck. Number four was posterior, 2 hrs
of no descent in 2nd stage. I could feel she was stuck and tried everything.
In the end I demanded an epidural and forceps. Once the doctor
Ken,
Your story is a very common one.
I think we all saw a good many Keillands Rotations in our day often the
dreadful resulting lacerations pain, injury suffering that went along
with them for mother baby.
I agree with Rachel in that often this was caused by operator error, the Reg

Okay,
so now 'they' are blaming the dads for Cs rates...moved on from the women
demanding the CS to dads. I think it is a poor reflection on education of
soon to be parents, or the lack of good education. I am aware that dads
can get overwhelmed by birth, as a doula
It's unlikely that an obs would get sued if the woman had made an informed
decision about her birth option. Some women would opt for a 'difficult'
forceps birth rather than a c-section. Others would rather have a c-section
than an 'easy' ventouse. Obs may find themselves getting sued when a
Sorry, I too have seen some dreadful injuries, but not with Kielland, and my
own experience with the Kielland was okay, no episi and only a very small
tear. Which I thought was pretty good considering the huge epises I'd had
with the others. It was the Neville Barnes forceps that did the damage,
Actually the safest option all up, as mentioned previously , is to...
