"Obstetrics is a surgical specialty. So far, the significant numbers of women now practicing in the field have done little to change the surgical view of birthing women."
I didn't go into OB/Gyne so I definitely didn't help the situation, but I would like to have a discussion about this. The above line is from this article, which mentions an alarming statistic about the rate of maternal death rising.
I'll see if I can get more readers to review this information together. Should be interesting.

About Me
I'm a resident physician and first-time mom. You are welcome to follow my chronicles of returning to work. I will be open about the challenges of protecting family time and sticking to my breast-feeding plan in this difficult career path.
I will also swap my quirky, medical spin on motherhood for tips from other parents on how to stay afloat. As I discover time and money savers, or anything that sweetens my precious home-life, I will post about it here.

I couldn't access the article (I'm not a member of that site). I would be interested to hear why/how in this day and age the rate of maternal death is on the rise. To be continued...
Great blog post, thanks for sharing.
