As soon as I read the more famous article about the cost of healthcare, I immediately saw its application to the natural childbirth movement. It is *astounding* to be that the same author would advocate for HIGHER rates of C-section. Even if C-sections were as safe as vaginal births (which they are not), there would still be no justification for the expense of them when looking at the overall explosion of health care costs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-35063675268023506402009-06-29T19:44:46.443-04:002009-06-29T19:44:46.443-04:00amy was the midwife that caught willem =)
