chocolatecatty - good point about the hospital stats! Danni - do specifically ask this question and keep asking different people until someone gives you an answer (if you really want the answer). According to the mid doing my classes - there is no such thing as an emergency c-sect, none of us will NEED a c-sect, they "don't often do forcep deliveries" (which is a lie) and a few other non-truths as well! I think she is a bit out dated and perhaps a bit TOO positive. I'm lucky I have my training because otherwise I think I'd be going into this thinking it will be painless and easy! Oh - and according to her - baby mix ups don't happen; so DH had a GREAT laugh at the mix up at our hospital that happened this week!!!!!!!!!
