But an obstetrician at Westmead Hospital, Andrew Pesce, said supporting natural birth in more cases would not dramatically reduce the caesarean rate, and would be expensive.
In the public system, he said, it was ”a problem to match up the women with the sort of care they might need” and hospitals would … need to have doctors willing to attempt complicated natural deliveries ies on-call at all times.
”The majority of women are reasonably happy with the care that’s being given now.”

reasonable as a definition: fair; average
Aim high Pesce!
Near enough is good enough, right?
Most women are reasonably satisfied that Andrew Pesce is kinda, sorta, average for an ob. Sadly.
Yeah,’cause midwifery care is SO MUCH more expensive than obstetrical care and the 30+ percent c/s rate. ***insert eyeroll***
Ahh you all make me laugh.
