How comfortable are ED docs with OB issues?? Are deliveries totally out of the question?

I'm psychic for those of you that don't know.
And there's always the case of the dumb fat women who don't even KNOW THAT THEY'RE PREGNANT, present with abdominal pain, and drop a baby in your lap (happened to me...)

Anyone here ever actually done a post-mortem c-section?

Didn't that happen a couple of years ago in one episode of "Trauma" at your hospital? How often does that actually happen there?

Difficult deliveries always involve calling OB.

When I was an intern we had one traumatic code c-section (which the senior on that day took of course). Pretty dramatic stuff, which I hope never to have to see again.
Speaking of pregnancy-related weirdness, how about that f*cked up case in Oklahoma where that woman alleged killed a co-worker and cut the fetus out of her and tried to pass it off as her own? Sure glad I don't live in that part of the country anymore.
