What’s it going to take?
It’s going to take something huge, as Marsden cites, in cases where midwives have risen. Guess the 31% cesarean rate isn’t high enough yet in the U.S. – it will have to go higher? L
I would personally like the docs to stop talking as authorities of my profession – midwifery and obstetrics are totally different professions – can you imagine OBs answering to heart surgeons? Why should midwives have to answer to the OB GYN trade union, ACOG? It’s apples and oranges.
[I’ll be looking for your Birth email – going to have an event here in March once I find out when they are doing it here]
