Very true... my best friend had to have forceps deliveries with all 3 of her boys. Another friend of mine has four kids, and every one was born with some sort of genetic disorder where they have to go get transfusions until a certain age. But, they all lived and are healthy, "normal" kids.I hope it works out. The poor guy is beside himself with worry. He's 45, this is his second marriage and he didn't have any kids with his first wife. They kind of feel like this is their last chance. If anything goes wrong this time I don't know how either one of them are going to be able to cope with it.
I think she should have a c-section, but he said she's more afraid of that than she is of anything going wrong at the very end.
Shit. My baby just got caught on the lip of the cervix and if my doctor hadn't reached in with his bare hands and pulled her out by the head she would have been born dead, or severly retarded. Instead she just had this bump on her head that went away after a couple of years.
You never know.
