So sad to read but a reality...

“I’m Not Standing Around, Waiting, While You Labour For 36 Hours…”

“I’m not standing around, waiting, while you labor for 36 hours, we’ll just do a cesarean section and get it over with.” – OB to mother when she inquired about a VBAC.

Quotes

Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' Vanity asks the question, 'Is it popular?' But, Conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but one must take it because it is right." ~Martin Luther King

In our relationship with children and young people, we are not dealing with mechanical devices that can be quickly repaired, but with living beings who are impressionable, volatile, sensitive, afraid, affectionate; and to deal with them we have to have great understanding, the strength of patience and love." Jiddu Krishnamurti

"The less a woman knows about the right way to give birth, the easier it will be for her." -Dr. Michel Odent

‎"Don't stand unmoving outside the door of a crying baby whose only desire is to touch you. Go to your baby. Go to your baby a million times. Demonstrate that people can be trusted, that the environment can be trusted, that we live in a benign universe." ~ Peggy O'Mara
