Wow, you're good. I'll bring a full-line of pirate accoutrements, plus a Lady Macbeth outfit as back-up. Maybe even a Lizzie Borden get-up if things drag on unduly... "Where's my axe? WHERE'S MY AXE?!"

Dr. Hill (one of the docs on the show) is my OB. She asked if I'd consider doing it. They use real patients in the practice, no casting call. And there's no compensation. It's just a documentary profiling people who feel comfortable sharing their story. No pay.

You're an inspiration.
Can I borrow your crotchless red pleather birthing pants? Or maybe I'll go with a black lace wedding dress-- with veil and cathedral train-- that I can hike up around my hips while I squat and scream in unholy horror.
Do you think they'd let me bring my fighting robot, just in case I'm in too much pain to trash the room and beat people senseless myself? If so, I might take a heavy metal cue from you... I can program it in advance to sing some AC/DC (maybe "Highway to Hell?") while he's smashing holes in the walls.

Wow ok. Did you know that your doctor was on the show before or did you find out when she asked you if you wanted to be involved?

I knew they filmed a show at the office, but I had never seen it. When Dr. Hill asked me, I went home and checked it out.

holy crap you guys are doing the unthinkable:
it almost makes me want to give birth all over again-- but this time: with props, costumes, and cameras.
*scratches chin meditatively* but you know, the pain really is a bitch.
nah, i'll be happy to just watch.
but those crotchless pleasther birthing pants really ... almost makes it seem like it would be worth it.

Yeah, it's true... the pain part does really kinda suck.
But in order to cope, I've enrolled in a childbirth class called "Birth Inferno: High Production Headbangers' Birthing Technique."
The course is taught by Metal God, Rob Halford. He's really inspiring me, and thanks to him, I'm learning not to fight my impulses to stick bicycle spokes in people's eyes and scream things at the nurses like "Taste my poison fire, you rancid steaming piles of hellfilth!" According to his birthing technique, you submit to your inner headbanger-- pleather pants, pyro and all-- and ride your gothic fury like a monstrous evil bilious wave.
We use Judas Priest's album PAINKILLER as a natural alternative to medication.
And the guys from Iron Maiden have agreed to serve as my birth attendant team.
