I thought I heard that since K_Jo video taped the conception she figured it would be a good idea to get the birth too...:shrug:

I don't remember anything about the Baby Bubba's birth, but I am perfectly ok with that. I don't need a stinkin' video to remind me of how gross it all was.

Tell me about it. I was a firm believer in the man belongs in the hall pacing nervously club. Of course I buckled and went in for his birth. They yanked him out and I was like Glad they didn't ask me if I wanted to hold him before they cleaned him up. I would have said "Hell no" and been branded a bad dad.

Well Boy was a c-section. Maybe the squeezing out of a vagina acts like a squeegie or something. :shrug:

See that is the womans position. If you were guy-minded you would definitely video tape it. You would also show it every time the guys came over.

Check this out, watch my vagina stretch 7 times its natural size! Hurt like hell but I did it!

Umm. I have no desire for ANYONE to have a video camera anywhere NEAR me while giving birth...and have no earthly idea why anyone would. I mean..I find it highly unlikely I will ever "forget" that day..and feel no need to have it documented.

I worked at frederick Memorial (mentioned in the article) and remember people talking about the incident they mention..and that to me is insane. Why the hell you would have a camera in a birth is beyond me..much less in a difficult one, or to continue to try to film once it becomes evident there is something going on.


I am ALLLLL about video camera bans, and see no problem with having a five minutes after birth rule to start taking still shots.


So. Who has a video of themselves giving birth?

NOT me! Hellll no. Not only that, with Thing2 (Portsmouth Naval Med. Ctr) the DOCTOR kept insisting that I wanted the mirror strategically placed so I wouldn't regret missing the blessed event later in life. I had to nearly turn Linda Blair demonic on him in order to make him understand I wanted no parts of it.

A friend of mine has a son who's GF just had a baby in the summer. I declare - their entire HS graduating class attended or visited within 4 hours of that birth! They needed a revolving door on the maternity ward. Sheesh.

OOOh no. That's another thing...I just don't want anyone bothering me. Why the heck would I want everyone to see me after that No. If you want to come visit ...wait a few days until I get home and settled...then come see me and the baby. For Gooodness sakes she does get to come home with me..no need to come down there. I barely want SO or my mom. and as far as I am concerned they can wait in the hall. I dont understand people's need to make some kind of holiday or spectacle over the birth. Let me do it..then you can see me when I have showered, slept a few hours..and the poor baby has its nose sucked and stuff and is in a damn blanket.
