[quote=Anonymous]Haven't read all the posts. I think it's insane. The amount is horrifying. They chose to have a home birth. People have strong opinions about how they want to do it and they shop and shop for a doctor who will do it. Some people insist on VBAC, others home birth, others midwife birthing center. Then, things don't go as planned and they sue. NOBODY wants to be an OB anymore and can you blame them? They have high malpractice insurance costs and they become scapegoats or the hospital becomes the scapegoat. Do hospitals make mistakes? Absolutely! I do think there are cases where it is justified to sue, but you take risks doing things "your way" instead of the physician recommended way and at least have the integrity to own up to it instead of making an incredible hospita like Hopkins suffer.[/quote]
