We get a few birth plans, and they are useful as starting points to discuss the various issues and we will try to comply as best we can. However, the length of the plan is generally inversely proportional to the number of complications encountered and therefore the length of time before we're no longer using it!

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.
