Sometimes, I am immature. I can think of no other explanation for why this video made me laugh and why I thought I should share it with you. Disclaimer: Don’t play this if you’re at work (or, possibly, about to give birth). Trust me. Go home and play it.
Afterthought: they really should play this video to teenage girls. Then they’ll never want to have sex.
If you’re wondering WTF, here is some pertinent information about the plastic vagina:
“This brand new Simulator provides a platform for the teaching and
acquisition of many of the practical skills required for the successful
management of childbirth. It has been developed for multiple
professional training, in conjunction with midwives and obstetricians
from Southmead Hospital, Bristol (UK) and Gloucestershire Royal
Hospital (UK). It is an integral part of the PROMPT (PRactical
Obstetric Multi-Professional Training) course. ”

I agree Tals. When is someone going to invent a plastic birthing mamma who simulates a "normal" vaginal birth? We need one that can walk around, rock her pelvis, and get into whatever position she pleases. Not one whose only position is flat on her back in a hospital bed!
Hmm maybe I'm crazy but I didn't find that offputting at all! Maybe amusing?!
I've been present at two births (one home, one waterbirth at a birthing centre), and they looked NOTHING like that! I am excited about being able to give birth soon, and that clip just makes me thankful I am opting for a home waterbirth!
