Re: Birth PlansFrom: Ronald Helm (ronhelm@ronhelm.seanet.com)Sun Jun 22 17:41:49 1997
The best laid plans of mice and men! Our midwives even go as far as to schedule a one hour session with each couple to lay out their "birthplans". Really all we, and the parents want is a healthy baby and a healthy mother. I get a sordid sort of enjoyment out of watching couples tick off and throw each of their wishes out the window as labor progresses. They really don't seem to care once labor has started. Their behavior becomes much more goal directed, the end is the goal in itself, and the means becomes secondary. Ron
> It has been my impression that the easiest way to guarantee you Folklore over here said that the more detailed the Birth Plan the more likely complications were. In fact though I saw a paper recently which showed no relationship with presence or length of Birth Plan to outcome ! Malcolm Griffiths MD,MRCOG,MFFP,Cert.Mgmnt

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
