Nice to hear you are doing great after your surgery Dan. Yes Indeed I am a firm believer of that statement, and its better to be lucky than good. With a BMI of 46 her chance of a wound infection would be at least 10% where I work even with I.V. ancef, 50% chance I would have to use a classical incision and maybe deliever the baby as a vertex as half of it was below spines durring a ccontraction, good chance a G.A. would be used eyeballing her she had one of those scarry short necks for intubation. And ofcourse if see got a section she would be setup for previa,accerta,aburptio etc. next time. So I think not just the accoucher was lucky here, because if she was 5 cm when I checked her she would have probably gotten a section.

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.
