Let me get this right... you believe that your opinion is absolutely correct and therefore I'm positively wrong... and I'M the one who doesn't have an open mind in this scenario?

I needed a good laugh, thank you. Also, my "profession" means that I actually DO care about medicine, procedures, and the safe delivery of children. It would be nonsense to think otherwise. I don't, however, understand what my "personality" has to do with anything. *shrug*

I'm in here having a conversation already... I'm already talking with people... you come in and tell me i'm not open-minded. I'm not sure how you came to that conclusion, but I will tell you here and now that you are incorrect. My mind is perfectly open- if you say shit that is inconsequential, meaningless, or use a 30 year old medical study to compare to current-day medical practice, the openness of my mind has nothing to do with whether or not I find your research and/or application methodology to be utter shit.

The actual "Freebirth" movement does not remove midwives from the picture. In fact the first place I ever heard the term was from ....a midwife several years ago.
Well, my understanding of the "freebirth" thing was no birthing personnel, based only on the other feedback in this thread. Don't look at me, take it up with them.

The "very good" opinion you hold is just that....opinion,and one I do not share. Nor does my wife, who by the way would be the one getting cut open.
You're absolutely correct, "very good" is an opinion. It was not my intention to indicate my opinion, rather, to inform that birth by caesarian section is a current, accepted practice in obstetrics and gynecology aside from natural birth. In cases of fetal distress of any kind, it is the ONLY indicated procedure for correction of the issue with safe extraction of the fetus.

YOUR opinion is whether or not you want such a procedure done, which is fine. I'm not arguing with anyone over preference- I was pointing out the logical fallacy in using a 30 year old study that is so horridly obsolete it's scary to even consider using as a basis for anything.

As is par for the course you claim "Bullshit" by spewing your own version of it.
I don't know what this means, but it doesn't sound friendly. Unfortunate.
