[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand people that think somehow an epidural or formula will be forced on them at sibley.....what exactly do you think happens here?  They ask you if you want an epidural and you say yes or no.  If you don't want them to offer again 10 hours later, just say "please don't offer one again, i'll let you know if I've changed my mind".  They don't push formula at all - they do offer it if you might need it (I had flat nipples and they were bloody and torn up within 8 hours of deliverying and my baby wasn't getting anything....thank god they offered my formula to relieve the pressure of the screaming baby so  i could more calmly try to figure it out with a nipple shield.  but all they did is offer...they didn't force formula)

95% of OBs want to keep the mom and baby as safe as possible and ensure a happy healthy delivery.  people have such weird views of what and OBs goals are.  OB isn't the specialty you'd go into if your goal was to make bank    [/quote]

There are some horror stories, but they tend to be either from years ago or other parts of the country.  No one at Sibley these days (meaning within at least the last decade) is pushing epidurals or elective C-sections.  [/quote]
