It's very scary by debacle (2.00 / 0) #34 Wed May 21, 2008 at 04:37:45 PM EST

Women die in childbirth all the time. Less so now than before, but at the same time it is a risk. It's a difficult thing to be excited about the birth of your child yet worried about the safety and health of both the child and the mother.

I can't even begin to imagine the fear and emotional up and downs that women go through.

Pregnancy is one of the most awesome, and most scary things in the entirety of the human experience.

Pregnancy isn't too bad by debacle (2.00 / 0) #41 Wed May 21, 2008 at 04:48:17 PM EST

But maybe having experienced it (second-hand) a few times has made me less awe-struck by it.

Labor itself, though, is terrifying for everyone involved, I think.

It's both good, and bad. Both on levels that my fragile male mind can't comprehend.
