I am curious. Can you talk to me a little bit about two-step deliveries, like delivering the head and then waiting for the next contraction?

Are there any pelvic shapes that actually are an indication for cesarean section?

My one regret is allowing the midwife to break my waters just prior to pushing. Could the breaking of the

waters caused my baby to actually spin to Sunny Side Up? Have you ever had a terrible haircut? And if

so, when and what was it? Sheney O'Connor was also buzz cut and I really liked her music.

And so I thought I should get a buzz cut.

She took me to get a cutter.

She probably actually cut it herself because she usually did that.

She probably did.

I think that might be correct.

So she buzzed off all your hair.

And it looked horrible.

And I had to go to school the next day and everybody called me a boy.

That's why we need parents to stop us from doing stupid things, not to grab the buzzer.

I mean, you know, who knows?

Maybe it made me tough.
