Yes, I have.
When I was working in Saudi. Grand Multi, coule see the baby's
head at the introitus but she would not push, wanted a CS.
It was a very interventionist place, a dribble of synto was
commenced, easy when all women had an IV, and eventually she
gave one big push and the baby came out. I could speak some
arabic but not enough to delve into the fears she had. Chances
are she had not wanted to be pregnant and possible did not
particularly want this baby. Or possibly the coming of the baby
would soon mean resumption of unwanted andvances from her,
possibly chosen for her, husband.
