Following the post from Lynne Staff, and others
who talk of supportive (might even say sensible) obstetricians who do practice
woman friendly care. Wouldn't it be good if some of these rare creatures came
out and spoke to their less supportive colleagues about their methods, beliefs
and results.
I feel conflicted about this
because they have access to the same information as the rest of us but are
obviously motivated by different things (money perhaps???) in the decisions
they make for their clients. I think we will have much more chance of
educating women to reject their dangerous practices. Women are sometimes more
open to reflection on this stuff after a poor experience. I doubt very much
that the Obs I hear about whose standard lines are "Do this or your baby will
die." have very much invested in providing appropriate social care,
yk?
Of course anything that
works has got to be good! Marsden Wagner talks convincingly about his
conversion.
