All I could say last night, several times...was HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm currently seeing midwives who we pay out of pocket for because insurance doesn't cover them. We are *contemplating* getting an U/S to determine sex and so I "faked it" yesterday for an appointment with an OB office to get the slip for U/S so if we do it, it's covered by insurance...
ANYWAYS.........
In their PreNatal Nurse appointment they give you this book. I didn't have a chance to crack it till last night but when I did I couldn't pick my jaw up off the ground!!!!!!!!!! It was horrifying!!!!!!!!!!! If none of you have seen this, they say things such as "Don't interogate your doctor with questions like his C/Sec rate........he doesn't keep track", "When looking for a doctor, you aren't negotiating the MIddle East....just be easy going and nice!", "C Sections rates have risen because the surgery is safer and doctors have a greater concern for the babies", and "Babies often do very well at calming themselves and should be removed from the room by 6 weeks...you need your sanity and babies are loud!".
I cannot believe they are giving this utter CRAP out to new moms!!!!!!!!!!!! I couldn't believe it...I still can't believe it. The chick who wrote this is, in my book, on par with Ezzo. Grr.
I was just going to not go back to this office (obviously) but now I feel like I should write a scathing letter saying that I'd never go to a doctors office who gave this out.
Has anyone else read this???? Are there any sites or experts who have publicly discredited it???
