How true - surely it isn't only me who has experienced the mother having a Caesar the first time for an average sized baby after induction for whatever reason, and followed this with an easy vaginal delivery of a baby up to 500 grams bigger the next time, because one waited for spontaneous onset of labour?

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.
