A 98% epidural rate and over 50% caesar rate? Sounds like she should be working in another hospital - that is shocking. I'm sorry she made you feel so bad, Monnie, it was obviously her (bad) attempt at humour. However, it must be tough working in a hospital with such high intervention rates and I can imagine it must be quite frustrating to deal with that on a daily basis. However, I don't believe in the 'too posh to push' label at all, that is not on, and definately worth a comment to someone. Women choose to do what is best for them based on information from their ob - whether that is medically indicated or not.
