Little did I know, when I witnessed my first vaginal breech delivery at a small county hospital in middle Tennessee in 1972, that I was seeing a physiological process that was being rapidly phased out in the US. A woman in labor, waiting at home for her husband to take her to the hospital, delivered the baby herself after her contractions progressed quickly and she realized it was a breech delivery. The few exceptions are those who study in nonindustrialized countries, where the art of breech delivery has been preserved. |
