Good points Mary and Janet. I asked one of of
our obs if they would like to attend the last conference in Perth - they had not
even heard of Michel Odent!

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.
