That's cool, it was a genuine question, but in the abstract is says, "The rate of neonatal infection was also not increased with a water birth (1.22% vs. 2.64%, respectively)" Which seems to say that a doubling of the infection rate is 'not an increase'? Not too sure I'd agree with that (and I'm not paying £18 to read the full paper). And I'd suggest that the lack of analgesics is due to the sort of women who would want a water birth). (Of course, this is just the abstract)
