Well said, so funny and so devastatingly true!!   Tragi-comedy indeed!

Mess?! considering how much mess -- not just in one room, but on the planet -- all babies/children/adolescents/adults make from conception to decomposition, what's a bit of amniotic fluid once every so many years??? A beautiful flowing indeed.

Hi Jo, after reading your e-mail it makes me realise something about my
first birth. It was suggested by my Ob at 9cm to have waters broken, I was
nearly there and if left longer the waters will come out with pressure and
mess every where. He did say it might speed things up a bit. Ignorantly I
agreed but fortunately my baby was coming out, his help or not. This would
be another of those informed consent things I suppose. Interestingly my
waters did not break until just before head crowned with my next two babies,
strange how my private midwife was NOT AT ALL fussed with this????????? Then
again it was my house I was making the mess in!
Megan.
