Smok - I've been through this three times. It can be a harrowing experience to say the least. Here are the steps that should be taken in their proper order.
1. Time the contractions. This is an important step because it provides some clue as to how close to delivery the woman is.
2. Make her as comfortable as possible.
3. Equipment preparation is the next step. This should be done carefully but quickly. An essential piece of equipment is a small brown paper sack. If winter time, the equipment should be warmed.
4. Load her into the equipment and drive like crazy to the nearest hospital.
5. While waiting, breath into the paper sack if you feel dizzy.
6. Waiting out the birth can be an agonizing, yes, even helpless, feeling. No one can understand the level of apprehension unless you've gone through it yourself. As I said, I've done this three times and it can be unnerving.
7. If the hospital lounge has a T.V. then check for a good sports program. There is no reason not to stay informed on scores or highlights.
8. Remember, most hospitals have a cafeteria. If they allow it, you should get your meal to go. You don't want to miss those sports shows.

Any other questions, just ask.
Good grief,it isnt THAT difficult,you guys are wimps.
Wimps! My dear lady I'll have you know I hurt my finger changing channels when my second child was born and I sucked it up like a man!
whooo hoooo,how many doctors did it take to kill the pain there Rick????
Uh......two....I think.....I sort of passed out.
Yea well you should have been in HER position....
What? Laying down? Yea. That probably would have kept me from passing out. Thanks, I'll have to remember that.
Yea well I guess you got that part down anyway if you passed out
Smok,if you are really worried about that aspect,the red cross can train you how to deliver babies,barring any unforseen complications where a doctor is actually needed.
I applaud Rick's courage he really had to persevere that time
uh-huh rightttttttt!
Was that sarcasm darling? I mean..the man suffered :p
suffered,LOL Somehow I dont think so
Just think of it as fishing
1 you gotta catch it
2 take the line off it (the umbilical cord)
3 clean it
4 enjoy the fruits of your labor (ha ha a funny:eek:)
Wha..? What happened? Oh, yea. I passed out after umbilical cord. (thump!)
You will never look at fishing the same way again will ya Rick???Quote:
