No way dude. Hospital job, no hippy shit.
If I've learnt one thing from the whole experience, it's to have your baby in the hospital (Mr Chris should stop reading now).
Having it at home is, IMO, incredibly selfish with regards to the safety of the baby. Even if you only live a few minutes from the hospital it doesn't help - when they found out that Sam's heart wasn't beating there wasn't even time to get Mrs Grim... into another fucking
room for an emergency c-section, he just had to come the fuck out. Cue around ten people running into the room shouting medical stuff while I tried to convince Mrs Grim... that everything was fine (she was properly out of it by then).
Totally, totally agree. This made me think 2 things.
1) Fuuuucccck.
2) Doctors and Nurses are bad asses. Thats proper Dr Who Sonic-Screw-Driver-Shit right there. I'm surprised a theme tune didn't play.
I mean people harp on about natural this, and natural that and Evil Big Pharma and how drugs are bad, and going to hospital makes you ill, and energy and vibrations, and on and on. Whilst ignoring the fact that Doctors can do fucking incredible stuff like that.
