I tried to get up off the 'birthing couch' and leave, saying, 'I've got to go'. Hubby and midwife had to insist I stay. I think it's hard to select a good pair of heels when the baby's crowning. I wonder if, at transition, the ewe just wants a worzel and a trip to the shearers.silverpebblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01456289271322986540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37400848.post-19870367075182826992009-03-20T11:30:00.000+00:002009-03-20T11:30:00.000+00:00Reading this made me feel exactly as I did when I ...Reading this made me feel exactly as I did when I ate too much Caramac as a child.Dickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14197546065992968504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37400848.post-77016803035091882412009-03-19T23:07:00.000+00:002009-03-19T23:07:00.000+00:00My God, this post has just about everything in it!...My God, this post has just about everything in it!
