“…Because You Have Small Feet.”
“You’ll probably have a cesarean section because you have small feet.” -OB

You’ve gotta check out Gloria Lemay’s article, “Pelvises I Have Known and Loved.” In it, she says, “One of the midwife ‘tricks’ that we were taught was to ask the mother’s shoe size. If the mother wore size five or more shoes, the theory went that her pelvis would be ample.” This is probably the basis of this OB’s comment. But the article continues to a story that proves the “rule” wrong.

Sounds like they’re grasping at straws now for excuses to preform a c-section.
