[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The article noted many things - you only picked the parts that you like.  But thanks for telling me what I believe.

It seemed you missed a very simple message of the essay: the doctor's bag is getting lighter. It used to be full of all kinds of tricks and tools, including the scalpel.  Now, it's just the scalpel.  Not because they believe the other tools won't work; it's because they don't know how to use them. They simply never learned. And that's why women with any deviations from the "uncomplicated vaginal birth" pathway find themselves with fewer options.  Not because physicians believe these options aren't suitable, but mostly because they don't know how to use them.   It's a very simplified picture, for sure, with lots of gray and nuanced parts, but that's the direction of travel.  We should be able to acknowledge this as reality.[/quote]

DP. Sure, but what is the point.of this acknowledgement if countering this, or as PP so eloquently said, "preserving artisanship," comes at such a high price to laboring mother's? I don't see the point of any acknowledgement when it would be unethical to take steps to preserve that artisanship. [/quote]
