Sounds a lot about control, control by the Ob, control by the hospital v's
control by the labouring woman and her support persons. I have heard of a
private hospital in the area I live in refusing a support person, because
she is a midwife, childbirth educator who has a "history" with some of the
Ob's in the area. Even with good clear communication, the perception of a
lack of control by some people/organisations is enough to "set them off"
Good luck and I hope your client has the birth experience she wants
