Your column is just so right on ... I thank you for your words, as a single mother, a tired middle aged lady, an OB nurse, and finally, midwifery student (after enduring years of torment and despair and pennilessness from raising my hellions); I witness the miracle of birth and the transformation of girls and women into mothers daily. I let some of them in on the secret: pain of childbirth is transient and goes away. Just wait until they are teenagers. There are no psychic epidurals for that, except the drink in hand or toke.
-- Bitch Nurse, hopefully Bitch Midwife one of these #$&*% years
