2. The word "crowning" alone is creepy.

I have seen crowning. The word is nowhere near as creepy as the fact.

It was unintentional, btw. There were like 15 docs and nurses in there and someone distracted me from my clear, definite strategy of "stay with the head" (Mrs. Finch's head).

One nurse also tried to get me to watch the little bugger emerging -- being pulled by forceps, and covered in crap. What's wrong with these people? Do they want me never to think of pussy in a nice way again?

The nurse tried to get my then-husband to look, too. I was so exhausted that I was sleeping between contractions, but I was about to sit up to prevent any such viewing action, when I heard him say, "Uh... I'm not allowed."

Good man.

Good man.
my daughter was a c-section. i have no idea why i was in there, but i was. after the baby was out, the doctor says, "Hank, c'mere I want to show you something." he has guts in his hand. "This is her uterus, and this," he points at some kind of knot-looking thing," is a cyst."

I go, "um, okay?" like he will raise some issue that we need to address.

he says, "just wanted to let you know about it."

like, NWTF? I guess it was some sort of CYA, but even that would require a writing, yes?

I looked. At everything. Vaginal births. C-sections. What's the big deal?

Bangs, I think.

In related news, my boyfriend thinks Gail Simmons might also be pregnant. If not, he approves wholeheartedly of her cleavage.

Are they going to cook at French Laundry for the finale?

Meh. I'd also prefer not to watch E/o take a huge dump on a Monday afternoon, IYKWIM.

"Stay with the head" is such a good rule, they ought to enshrine it in all pre-birth classes.

Fret not. For my hero's return, I have told him exactly what I have in mind, including last night, graphically, on the phone and via text.

He is very excited, as am I.
