C-section not best option for breech birth - The Globe and Mail

The Society of Obstetricians and Gynecologists of Canada is going to train docs to do vaginal breech births! That's so awesome! We have the same problem here in the States -- almost no doctors, and few midwives, know how to do them anymore; and those who do, keep quiet about it b/c it's illegal in so many jurisdictions. This is great. h/t Amy WB.
