Oh my.... it is very long and very medical but VERY informative about what is going to happen inside you on surgery day! Good post!!! However, I think some who are overly nervous already, don't watch it until AFTER your date.

Way to much information for me. I am so glad there are people in the world who can stomach HA this stuff. Thanks for the post, however, the nice drawing of the surgery were enough for me. I never did watch a live birth experience in Lamaze, I was afraid I'd change my mind. YUCK.
I am still in the process of seeing allthe consults - the cardiologist this week

I would have liked to have seen it, but, I don't have real player, and didn't want to give them my credit card numbers. Actually, maybe it is best I didn't see it
