In situations like this I don't believe emotive language helps and there are many times when an internal monitor is a good decision which saves a woman from an unnecessaarean.
I don't believe that dismissive language helps a woman who has just realised that she may have been duped. it is not a case of whether i am a fan of this monitoring or not, i just believe that women should be given accurate information to make decisions, and it doesn't sound like Sepata felt that she was.

My experience of the probe was a sore on my baby's head that remained for over 6 weeks, with a scar that was visible until she grew hair. This may not be typical, but that is what i have seen.
