Horrible experience with birth of first child. Spoke about me like I wasn't there (saying " this one doesn't know how to push") rather than to me so that I might be involved in my own care. Threatened me with forceps. Ended up with a third degree tear. When stitched up took a month to heal and found intimacy excruciating. Had an excellent midwife for the second delivery and the midwife not only made labour easy but did a better job stitching the tear that occurred...which healed in a week. Would not recommend this OB.
