Stick the P in the V without BC or a C,and don't pull out.

If you are talking about what to do during child birth, I am not much help. Both of my kids were delivered via C-section.

Did you watch the surgery? It's surprisingly gory. Enlightening though. I now know how to perform one in the event of a zombie apocalypse.If it's not a c-section, don't be surprised if it has a cone head. It will go away eventually.

^This!

I didn't watch it, I am super grossed out by blood and guts and stuff. Yes, I know I am a wimp.

I sat by my wife's head and they had a curtain set up so I couldn't see her being gutted like a fish. With my second kid, I did stand up for a second and saw the huge opening in my wife's belly, and I got kinda queasy. They were moving internal organs all around to pull out my kid.

My best advice?

Don't.

What if this is no longer an option?

I don't know if anyone else had this issue, but 90% of the nurses that worked in the recovery stage of the labor area are smokin. And also in nicu they are fine as well.

Unfortunately, I have no further input beyond the "should we/shouldn't we" stage.

In all seriousness, my post was meant in jest. I respect any couple that has the means to raise a child and decides to make the commitment. My fiancee and I have decided that parenthood is not for us, though.

Do what I did and have twins. Taking care of 2 infants is WAY easier than just 1.

I agree! We had 3, easiest thing ever. Just like puppies, they pretty much take care of themselves at that point....

Nurses of all people should know smokin' is bad for their health.
