Patti Ramos – Detached: Perhaps the most heart-wrenching and amazing photo of the cesarean experience I’ve seen to-date.
Science & Sensibility – What SUVs Can Teach Us About Maternity Care: An excerpt from Henci Goer and Amy Romano’s forthcoming second edition of Obstetric Myths versus Research Realities. The blog title pretty much captures it.
Birth Sense – “You’ll Never Be Able to Give Birth Vaginally”: An inspiring VBAC story of overcoming one OB’s negative (and wrong) prediction.
Reality Rounds – Sunday Funnies: A Birth Blogger Rap: Last, but not least, for those who enjoy a good row with The-Doctor-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named this is a must-read, as is the comment section on Jill’s post at the Unnecessarian that inspired it.
