Really? That's so odd - I watched both my wife's epidurals, and not only was there not any blood or anything that could imagine would induce fainting (well, ok, there was the huge needle), but it was really interesting to see the procedure. Of course, once the nurses figured out I wasn't the fainting type, they asked me to put on a gown and gloves and wash up and they let me fetch things and help out a little. It was quite the experience.
They also said you'd be surprised how many husbands faint or feel faint at some point in the process - at least half. - Jim William Bowen wrote: >>.....and this is why our health care system is so god-damned expensive in >>this country: >> >> > >My brother-in-law, at the birth of his second child, watched the >epidural procedure, against the advice of the doctor and my sister. > >He fainted and hit his head on a stool (that he'd been sitting on earlier). > >Cut his forehead pretty badly... > >so, it does happen. > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=17 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:163777 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
