Call the midwife - quickly!

When we have men in the obstetric profession issuing forth with this sort of nonsense, what hope do women have of a normal, birth without medical intervention?

Hannah Dahlen, Professor of Midwifery at University of Western Sydney states it very clearly. 
Dr Dietz's statement that ''human childbirth is a fundamental biomechanical mismatch, the opening is way too small and the passenger is way too big,'' provides a real insight into why the caesarean section rate may be so high in this country.

Would you entrust your labour and birth experience to an obstetrician who believes such a thing? Would you engage him or any of his acolytes if you want to have the birth that nature intended? I sincerely hope not! 

Want to ensure your birth centre birth or birth at home (or even your birth in a conventional labour ward) goes according to nature’s plan? Ideally your preparation will start before conception! All you need to know right here ...
