There is a news article here http://www.guardian.co.uk/society/2005/dec/03/health.medicineandhealth.<BR/>It's one of those tricky things where it's great that someone is finding ways to improve things for babies and families when a c-section is necessary, but needs to be kept in balance that it's still a serious operation and a good number of the times when it's truely necessary, it may well not be possible to perform it like this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7029247928009946691.post-72650931815968098552008-04-11T16:00:00.000-04:002008-04-11T16:00:00.000-04:00ha ha that just made me smile!ha ha that just made me smile!Michelle Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06166147011309699996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7029247928009946691.post-91984182007344184612008-04-11T13:42:00.000-04:002008-04-11T13:42:00.000-04:00Thank you for pointing out the (/) part of the pos...Thank you for pointing out the (/) part of the post!
