Robyn that's exactly what I think! But where is it written so it can be given as proof to mamas who don't know this stuff? I can't find anything : (

Hello Janet
 
The babies head does not 'ossify'! Just ask any chiropractor.......they are still soft and able to be manipulated for ages. I've never heard such a lot of rubbish. If you think about it, the fontanelles don't close for 6-18months,  to allow for brain growth. I think this Ob, is using his position to disadvantage the woman.

Subject: [ozmidwifery] ossification?

Hi all,
Are there actually any studies into when/if it occurs? I've seen an increasing number of women lately being told they *have* to have an ERC at 41 weeks or the baby will be too rigid to mold. Puh-lease! Any good sources I can share about this?
TIA
