How to get moved to the front of the line at the food stamp office

Back to the thread, I am very amused by the 2 camps I see with the responses. There is Team "Nobody has ever been killed witnessing childbirth" and Team "Oh, hell no! I will choose surgical options first!"

I remember when my 4 daughters were born, and I was on both camps; 2 of them I was , and the other 2 I was good, even helping my wife during childbirth.

When my first daughter was born I was nervous after that not so much. Also on the first youngin my wife labored for 19 hours the other four we had to make sure she carried a pillow to throw down so the kid would have a soft landing. Our oldest son (kid #3) was out in a hour after the first contraction.
I grew up on a farm so seeing things getting birthed is disconcerting at first but the new wears of quick.

..the female body is designed to give birth but a 7lb object doesn't exit a 10cm hole too easily,

...its a lot less easy to put it back in again afterwards

Which doesn't keep about half of us from trying!
