For every experience like mine there are just as many who have had better experiences with midwives than with doctors.

Of course, this can also tie into the old idea that women really have no clue what is best for them and when they are pregnant they are hormonal and irrational anyway. For me it is just another way to control women.

I am not sure what the solution here is though…hopefully someone can change their minds.
