Woman Plans to Give Birth Live on Internet

A Boston woman is planning to give birth live on the Internet.
Boston.com reports that blogger and first time mom Lynsee has been recording every detail of her pregnancy through her blog Watch Lynsee Grow. Not unusual given that there has been a huge influx of "Mommy Bloggers" over the last year or so. However, 23-year-old Lynsee will be giving birth live on the internet.
Already 37 weeks pregnant, Lynsee is due to give birth later this month and the whole thing will be streamed on the Moms Like Me website. Boston.com cites Lynsee as saying she and her husband wanted to document the pregnancy so their child could look back through everything in years to come.
“We wanted to document the pregnancy and create a one-of-a-kind memento for our baby to have forever,” said Lynsee. "You'll be at some of the doctor's appointments... You'll be there in the delivery room, tastefully, but you will be there.’’
Moms Like Me site manager Cindy Chapman says the idea stems from the TLC show 'A Baby Story'. Chapman wanted to take the concept further and broadcast a live birth, something that 'A Baby Story' does not do. Chapman says there will be no graphic scenes broadcasted and an experienced camera crew will be there to make sure everything is done right. She also added that there is a "massive crisis plan" in place.
Boston.com goes on to report that an October members poll showed that 60 percent of Moms Like Me users said they did not want anyone but their significant other in the room when they gave birth. However, the same percentage also said they would be interested in watching the birth.

women!!! womans is not a word!
it's a contraction. what he meant was "woman has" primarily "woman's" is posessi\/e. But is understood just as well for "noun-has" in e\/eryady speech.
Just creepy, if my mom did this I would emancipate myself asap.
Think photos of you, as a baby, in the bath are embarrassing? This kid has you beat...
Ew, keep it to yourself. Your kid would never want to see THAT. Idiot.

/facepalm.
*soft sobbing*
believe me , watching a childbirth isn't too pleasing for anyone other than a professional .
I hope it's half horse, half baby
According to the article they're not going to show anything in too much graphic detail. I can't make up my mind whether this would be good training for fathers to be.
watching a childbirth is like watching a wet german shepard try to come in through the cat door
Breeders.

yes , of course , they aren't gonna show anything graphic , and there is no value for "fathers to be" here , brother . fatherhood is very different from motherhood .
