Actually, I’d rather walk my kids to kindergarten. Especially my special needs daughter- when she is old enough, I’d do what I can to be able to walk her. *rolleyes*

[...] “We want her to be riding the long bus, don’t we?” — said to scare a mom into accepting a C-section when “stuck” at 8 cm. [...]

For me, I would say, “Actually, no.. the short bus would be great since my first born *already* rides the short bus. Now they’ll be able to ride together!”. THEN, I would walk out and refuse to pay.

UGH, how offensive.

Dawn, that’s exactly what I was going to say! It’s amazing when you can spout pseudoscientific garbage AND derogatory BS all in one breath. Brava to her.

I suppose in the action of jumping up to kick her in the rear, the baby would become quite UNSTUCK and things would proceed nicely…

As a parent of a special needs child, I find this unbelievably insulting.
I think if a midwife said that to me, I’d kick her out of the room, then report her.

That’s the point where I would have told the midwife to get the hell out of my room and stay out.

This is the point where I’d kick her the hell out of the room and tell her not to come back.

Scare tactics and prejustice…at the same time!
