Do not allow the medical speech or view initiate you: Cephalo (head) pelvic (pelvis) disproportion (one's too enormous for the other) is quite a Latin word for "it is highly unlikely the baby will fit down there" for conveyance.

The Beng people of West Africa view fetal development quite differently than many other cultures. They believe that babies are born into this world as a reincarnation of someone who has passed away. These infants do not come back from a land of diminishing lives, but from a place they call wrugbe, which is defined as the “spirit village”. Once a person passes away, their souls (nenen) become spirits (wru) in the wrugbe. In contrast to the normal depiction of the afterlife, the Beng believe that…

As executed and accepted as maternity leave is in every industrial and developed nation across the world, in the United States maternity leave policies were developed as a form of sexual discrimination. By the year 1977…
It has been argued that medieval sexual division of labor was so unconditional, that knowledge of obstetrics was not included in many medical texts, as women’s medicine was women’s business. This sexual division did not exist in Galen’s time; indeed, we can see quite easily that Galen was sufficiently versed in, and concerned with, female anatomy. The…
