Not anything like a record*, but like an obstetrician encouraging the downward trajectory of a bum-settled baby getting ready to squeeze out.

An intrepid evidence-based gang tried to answer the question for you ( https://adc.bmj.com/content/109/1/71.1 ) And we also chat in this podcast about the proble...
