You also read more into my message than I wrote. But then at least you didn't evade the issue and request the US to invade Botswana, like some 2x4 carriers I know.

Got a call this morning from my panel beater (nice person to know when your kids start getting their learner's license :-)-O), his wife has stress incontinence that it is starting to annoy both of them.

4 vaginal deliveries, one of them a forceps, and two episiotomies. Nobody ever told her about pelvic floor exercises either...

C/S is not the cure for everything, but you do not get a vaginal tear. Most of the time...

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.
