Jo, it's not my normal viewing either - but heard that there was going to be 
birth - and I thought it was handled really well (for the media).  She acted 
out the labour well, it didn't occur in five minutes and looked like hard 
work - which even for the most wonderful birth, most labours are hard work 
at least for a few minutes.

It irritates me how on TV/movies etc birth is either of two ways.

1.  Lady breathing slowly, looking serene, not a drop of sweat - then we 
suddenly have (oh no) an 'emergency' and we have to 
PPPPPUUUUUUUSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!  One or two of them - and out bub ops!

2.  Women in labour totally out of control, screaming hysterically - must be 
a scary event!!

Just venting

Hi all... Just finished watching McLeods Daughters tonight and was very
happy to see the main character (can't remember her name! not my usual
viewing) had her baby in a barn with her sister and the baby's father in
attendance.  I was very proud :)  I loved how she said that women have been
having babies in the field for centuries!  All it needed to top it off was 
a
breastfeeding scene ;)  But at least I didn't see any bottles lying around,
hehe
