I am sure dd#1s mw did that to her. She definitely cranked it right up after looking at her watch as it was heading for needing to think about going home in time for dinner :rolleyes: Thankfully dd managed to avoid the c section but they were apparently thinking they may have to.

Looking back, I'm sure they did this with our first. :(

When I say that in the modern medicine, for many decades, the interest and well being of a patient (or even large groups of patients) are no longer relevant, people usually think that I am going too far. :giggle:

I don't think so.

I do maintain that modern medicine of the past 60-something years is not a science, and not even an art. It is business, and the primary goal is profit, as you would expect with any business. Who suffers and gets killed in the process - doesn't matter unless it starts to hurt the income, which in our day and age is very well protected and is no longer influenced by the public. :rolleyes:

I think you're spot on with regard to the majority of doctors. And those who aren't like that, get it in the neck from those who are.
