[b]Every C-section is the same. [/b]It's a standardized procedure.  Every vaginal birth is different, and there are dozens of maneuvers that exist to deliver the baby.  Even if vaginal births may constitute two-thirds of an ob's workload, he or she may not encounter the same technique more than once or twice a month.  In that same month, he or she would have performed dozens of C-sections that differ little from each other. [/quote]

I'm glad you got the delivery you wanted, and I hope forceps are available to anyone who wants them.  But please tell me you know the bolded is not true.  Because it's not.[/quote]

You are not really making an argument that there is as much variation in C-section technique as there is in vaginal birth.[/quote]

No, I'm making the statement that "Every C-section is the same" is not true.  Because it is a false statement.[/quote]

A distinction without a difference if there ever was one.

In the meantime, I see you have no comment to offer on Gawande's essay. [/quote]
