The key is to know its not going to work and go to plan B, some of the scalp hemotom's I have seen after failed vaccum's makes you think what was the person doing the pulling thinking. Great job Garry , it would have been a shame to do a section for a 6lbs+ baby.

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.
