Another approach commonly used is to flip the mother (I know!) onto all fours - often that causes the baby to drop just enough to dislodge the shoulder. It appalls me that the hospital staff didn't seem to know about these methods.<br /><br />Sorry - I sound strident. I'm so glad that nurse decided to take drastic measures!Suburban Correspondenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11488916572135296650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381811875173852585.post-71352352535590013162010-10-13T17:41:34.633-07:002010-10-13T17:41:34.633-07:00Wow!

We had a great time because I already knew them. The night shifter dropped off her kids in the morning (on her way home to sleep) and told my coworkers to stay near the phone!Daisyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11647906900944224234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381811875173852585.post-73066846577469357722010-10-13T17:18:07.152-07:002010-10-13T17:18:07.152-07:00I always thought my birth story was pretty good --...I always thought my birth story was pretty good -- an hour of pushing and waking up in the middle of the eventual C-section -- but yours is un-toppable.
