Simon Ash Susanna Stanford 💙 Great dialogue. I think the first step is to separate the actual construct (pain) from proxies that might be measured in studies or data (fentanyl dose, GA conversion). What constitutes pain and what is too much is up to the patient--their (by definition) subjective experience.

As much as any #OBAnes might like to think they know, pain is whatever the woman says it is. The perception of pain is subjective, it is in the experience of the individual and will vary between women - as well as depending on how poor an inadequate block is proving to be. 1/

🤰C-sections make up one-third of U.S. births and yet they don't get talked about a lot. 🎙️Managing editor of ASU Media Enterprise, Mia Armstrong-López, spoke with Rachel Somerstein the author of, "Invisible Labor: The Untold Story of the Cesarean Section," about what you should know about
