Syd_AcidBro: If I said that I was not influenced by bollywood growing up in Nepal, I would be lying my head off... And this probably applies to majority of us who grew up in Nepal. I see this trend continue with Nepali families that bring their children up in other countries too. These children grow up watching bollywood as their parent usually cannot live without it. So let's not kid each other... It's a hypothetical question over dramatized by bollywood flicks. I guess we both can agree on that much. As someone else pointed out, during labour, this is not a decision you would be making. I think doctors will have to go to medical ethics and procedural norms in such situation. I am not an expert on that. If there is risk recognized in the early stages, as I said it's a calculated risk and what really happens in the end is upto the ethical standards...
