Yes thank God you do.
In my conversations with our midwife, I've come to realize that a lot of healthcare for women has basically been the functional equivalent of some guy throwing his arms up in the air in exasperation saying "Fuck it, I don't know, cut it off maybe!?"
There's a long way to go but there are those of us who listen at least long enough to know when to step aside and when to take appropriate action.
My wife and I try our best and I try to be as supportive and reasonable as possible for her when she needs that.
