I was told that the doctor was sitting on the floor and my mother on the edge of the bed to deliver me... so I am assuming he used his hands to pull me out...
I had high forceps delivery for all three of my own children. The doctor said he had to fracture my cyocc (sp) to delivery my first child. My second and third child were also high forceps. the (jerk) who delivered him told me his arm was transverse..
My first child has a trigemynal (sp) nerve damage to her face (not noticable) we did not discover it until she was older. I did not realize all the things that happened when she was born nor how many mistakes they made that cause the traumatic delivery for both of us. She had a black chest when she was born and no forehead to speak of ... My children were not injured like me so I feel I am lucky now.

No vacuum or forceps...just the petite little hands of my midwife pulling on Amber's head. Thanks a bunch!
