[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone who believes this bs about the dangers of ob assisted and medical assisted births and who is a doctor certified in childbirth raise their hand.[/quote]

If you think that you should trust your 'doctor certified in childbirth' to know anything and everything, that is your right.  I've been around long enough and had enough experience to learn that I need to be my own advocate for what's right for my body.  NOBODY knows what is best for your body, except for yourself.  It's definitely easier to leave everything in the hands of someone else (your OB), but that doesn't always guarantee the best outcome.

You sound naive.  Why do you think medical treatments evolve?  They used to give women scopolomine during childbirth because they thought it was best to knock these women out.  Is that still the best idea?  30 years ago, they thought so.  Isn't there a possibility that some of the things we say are 'safe' now turn out to be not so safe after a few decades and more research?

The argument that you do whatever your doctor recommends is ludicrous.  It just means you're too lazy to think for yourself.[/quote]
