So today I had the fun task of calling every Family Doctor in the area that's covered by my insurance. I must say that the majority of receptionists didn't even know that a Family Doctor could catch a baby. Ugh. I called 10, and all were a no go. Finally at physicians office #10, they gave me the phone number for the SE Missouri Medical Association (I wonder if I can research individual doctors statistics through them), and THEY gave me the number for a Family Doc who catches babies. I also set up an interview with the Doctor who my client delivered with. I'll probably also set up an interview with the OB who I let check my girly parts. I liked his candor, and that he didn't talk to me like I was a moron.
Oh and double UGH...

"The cesarean delivery rate rose 2 percent in 2007, to 31.8 percent, marking the 11th consecutive year of increase and another record high for the United States."
To quote The Price is Right, "THAT'S TOO MUCH".
