I don't mean to be insulting, but do you understand what perinatal means? If so, how can you insist that the perinatal statistics provided by Cynthetiq are irrelevant in judging the safety of birth? He isn't just supplying infant mortality rates, look more closely at the charts supplied.

At what point in an unsupervised unaccompanied birth attempt by an inexperienced mother trying to listen to her body do you think she would be able to determine "this isn't working, i need immediate medical attention or a c-section?" I am baffled by the logic you claim to follow.

I have had mothers tell me that my Doctor in the philosophy of Motherhood line was a milk snort through the nose moment for them. Spill coffee on the keyboard, choke on breakfast laughing so loud.
It was meant to be humorous, and taken out of the humor context it does look a little silly.
....[T]he ivory tower is quite high and inpenetrable to those of us who have little more than a high school degree.
Whatever, I know what I am about. And now I believe we are really getting off topic talking so much about me and my sites.

Something you learn in higher education is that if the evidence is contrary to everything you have thus far learned, question the source. The word 'educated' means something very specific, and I find it offensive that elsewhere you have claimed that you belong to a, quote, "very educated and proactive group of mothers." This directly contradicts your statement that you have little more than a high school diploma (
not a "high school degree," incidently).
Let me be very clear: I am not insulting your intelligence. You can be smart (very smart, in fact) without being educated, but you
cannot be considered 'very educated' without having undergone (and completed) some sort of higher education.
I find it quite offensive that you would refer to yourself as a PhD in a deceptive manner. Claiming that you use it for anything other than to bolster yourself, and give weight to your opinion, is, in my opinion, merely creating some plausible deniability.
