Missouri couple sues doctors for botched delivery of their baby. Unbelievably botched.

[animosity]

that baby yoga video is incredible! i had a hard time believing it was real and not just some 'real' baby for parenting classes.

this is a horrible experience for any family to go through. RIP baby.

[g r ee n ey e s]

I am pretty sure something like this would prevent me from having another child.

That yoga baby video is gonna give me nightmares.

[Tikaraa]

I couldn't watch it. Just watching her hold that baby by the arms like a puppet was painful enough. When she started flinging him around I nearly squealed with terror.

Bitch needs a slap.

The yoga baby video led me to a video of people tossing their 5-7 month olds in the water by themselves and letting them try to figure out how to swim on their own. I about hyperventilated.

i thought that was awesome. i watched a bunch of them. my mothers co-worker lost a granddaughter to drowning. the parents immediately brought their other child in to learn to re-position and float. that's how they learn. apparently a young child instinctively holds their breath. they just have to learn to go face up. some children i watched have also learned to float face up and call out for help while floating.

i think it's a very good thing!

Or just keep kids away from large bodies of water.

Maybe he put the head back in because he thought he could get it all out via c-section without having to remove the head? I cannot imagine the horror : (

i thought that was china at first...

hey! i've heard that before though... do black people really hate to go swimming? how is that possible? swimming is possibly the best thing ever invented.

[ZoMyGoddess!]

what i dont understand is "pushing it back in"
once the baby is in the vaginal canal, isnt it too late for a c section - i mean, he touched the baby, he was pulling it out, so its not like its still in the uterus.. its all the way down.

but i guess its a small baby because it was so early.

I think one of the articles said that the infants abdomen was too big for a vaginal delivery. Something was too big to fit through the vaginal canal. It may not have been the abdomen, I forget. If this is true. How the hell did the doc think the baby was going to come out? I'm thinking that's why he surgically removed the head from the torso with the c-section. He couldn't get the baby out of the vagina and couldn't pull it back up the vaginal wall and into the vagina and out the abdomen with the c-section. So his only choice was to cut the head off. The kid was already dead from him pulling on it from the vagina. The article said that there was blood everywhere, so there was some type open injury (partial decapitation?) prior to the c-section. He done fucked up when he told the couple they HAD to try a vaginal delivery and couldn't leave the hospital to go to another.

like y'all are just too stylish for that shit or what?

You're not kidding, are you?

Chemicals in the water is bad enough. Then the rest don't want to get their hair wet. No women in the pool means no guys in the pool.

I can't believe I just had to answer that.

[animosity]

it's an honest question. how am i supposed to know about chemicals?

[Ron_NYC]

Chlorine? It's not exactly a secret.

Yeah, no.

The ones I saw, yes I saw more than one lol, the babies were freaking the fuck out. One was crying and the "mom" didn't pick it up and let it calm down before trying. She flipped it on its face again in the water and let it continue. I must have been lead to the fucked up ones.

[brumby]

Ok I have to ask, what happens if the baby gets that far and is still alive?

[g r ee n ey e s]

You mean, neck injured but belly stuck still?

I am not kidding, I have to completely forget about this story if I ever want to have kids.

That's why you don't try a vaginal birth in the first place. If it were out in the Bushlands, I guess mom and baby both would die. Isn't there a member who works in L&D on here? Hopefully they can come in and answer.

[animosity]

just because a few babies have trouble doesn't mean it's a bad thing... it's incredible that they can learn this at such a young age. most babies drown immediately. if you teach your baby to float for just 1 minute, you've probably saved it's life!

this one shows how they work up to that point... it's not like they just trow a baby who's never been in a pool in and tell them sink or swim...

[animosity]

and this one is astounding to me... you gotta watch it until the end.
