Can they? In theory, yes, as all of them should have learned basic obstetrics during their medical or osteopathic school training. Are they allowed to? It depends upon what their hospital privileges are. Some hospitals allow GPs (general practitioners) or FPs (family practitioners) to deliver babies. Others only allow specialists in obstetrics (OB/GYNs) to deliver. Yet others will allow nurse midwives (under the supervision of doctors) to perform deliveries. OB/GYNs are doctors who (in the US) have done four years of additional training in their specialty of obstetrics and gynecology. FPs usually do several months of obstetric training during their three year residency. GPs are doctors without specialty training who did a year's internship after medical school, usually including a few months of obstetric training.
