No, I can and I can deliver twins providing both are cephalic. If I was an independent midwife it would also be within my scope of practise, if I was expereinced and confident enough, to deliver breeches. I could, if I wanted, become a midwife ventouse practitioner if I was prepared to do the training which I am not. There is no law against me delivering a breech anyway. If a woman comes in and her baby is breech and she declines a c/section and refuses to be seen by a doc then a mdiwife would have to do it. Not that that has happened...but it could!

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.
