[14]          We recognize that, in the future, the reasoning in Bovingdon and Paxton may be brought to bear in other cases involving post-conception negligence.  Indeed, in written and oral argument, counsel ventured opinions on a wide range of issues and possible scenarios extending well beyond the narrow compass of the facts of this case.

[15]          However, in our view, it is neither necessary nor desirable for this court in this case to attempt to set out comprehensively the duties owed and the potential liability of heath care providers in relation to all manner of injuries to infants arising from negligence before birth.

[16]          It is unnecessary as the facts of this case fall within the familiar and well-established category of labour and delivery cases where it has never been seriously questioned that negligent health care providers are liable.  As we can decide this case on the basis of this body of case law, we need not venture into less familiar territory or speculate as to how the law might evolve with respect to other scenarios.
