24 weeks: Childbirth methods

The Bradley Method

Key points:

- Women have easier deliveries when their husbands help while naked

Lamaze

Basic idea: Simple pain coping strategies can ease labor. Also, drugs are awesome.
Key points:

- Panting is a good way to increase oxygen to the brain despite overwhelming scientific and commonsense evidence to the contrary
Likely result: Healthy mother and baby

The Travis & Robyn Method

Basic idea: Travis grabs birth book on the way to the hospital and reads the content pages at stoplights.
Result: Healthy mother and baby
