Dear Jackie: I totally agree it is all about control; BUT after being at some 
60 home births in the past year as a midwifery student, I have a very painful 
knee after all the squatting, kneeling, etc..I have been doing. Not that I 
want to change and have the mums assume the "beetle postion" at optimum 
height for myself, but I would like some tips on preserving my own joints. It 
is weird because I don't even notice my discomfort at the birth, it is in the 
days afterwards that I do, until the next time when I get into any position I 
have to, to be with the mum. Any advice is welcome. Marilyn
