So, I keep reading in pregnancy books about how in hospital they won't let you eat or drink because they view all laboring women as possibly headed to the operating room. I also read studies on why this is silly.
So, my question is, do they really do this? Is it at all hospitals? Does it matter who attends the birth? Is it only in the US? I can't imagine being denied food and water for any length of time, but especially while working hard.
Just curious..
