Ummmm, not sure if I follow you. My frustrations (at least, those
presently under discussion....) deal with, say, showing some OB some study
that "showed" that c/s epidurals may cause disorganized suck. The OB can
claim, and most correctly, that it was the lack of stimulation provided
by a vaginal birth that "caused" the disorganized suck. Go prove the OB
wrong!
What did *you* mean by compromising themselves in the name of research?
