I was in the delivery room for S's labor. (The labor was badly managed and she was treated terribly, so ended up with an emergency C-section, after begging for a C-section for an hour of non-productive pushing. But I'm not still angry at the hospital or anything.)
There's not an awful lot of blood until the end. For me, it wasn't the blood as much as the raw emotion. I'm not sure that I could do that again.
Just a different pov.

Child #1: Is that your mother?
Child #2: Yes.
Child #1: Why is she white and you are black?
Child #2: Because I am adopted, and black people have more melanin than white people do.
Child #1: Oh, let's go on the high bars.
