Pat,

In Germany they like to put the patient on the side of the posterior fontanelle and it is hoped that that will make the head rotate. Please, don't ask me how and why, I always marvel from the sidelines.

My attitude is "If the baby doesn't want to come down, it doesn't want to come down."

I don't give a dead rats fuzzy behind about that moron at the WHO who has decided that there is such a thing as a Cesarean Section rate.

And, my FRCOG always told me that the only forceps he does is a Wrigely's outlet forceps and only if the head is straight. The man has NEVER been wrong. NEVER.

In the meantime I have however also learned to accept the value of "Clanking the Forceps" :-)-O

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.
