sil wasn't terribly thrilled about the very messy bits, and he refused point-blank to cut anyone's umbilical cords or help with the delivery. That's okay with me. At least it is now.
I think the weirdest part of childbirth for me was the temporary insanity/trauma amnesia. It works out nicely, because at least for Kay's birth, I don't remember swearing at the top of my lungs. Sil said he didn't know I knew those words.
