This has GOT to be a joke. Please be a joke...

Somehow I came across some crazy lady's blog about how she wants to do a Koi assisted water birth in her indoor Koi pond. She's due in October 2011.

I've heard of water births before, but none like this. My first thought: She'll be begging for an epidural. My second thought: She'll kill the first fish that touches her during a contraction!

What gets into some people? Do they really think that birth is that easy? Oh, I'll just chill in the Koi pond and my fish will bring my baby to the surface for me, all peaceful and stuff...
My epidural wore off when it was time to push for Ryan and I was screaming at the top of my lungs. I didn't want anyone to touch me, I just wanted to get it over with and see my baby. "Get out of my way, people, here we go!" I can't imagine what it would have felt like if slimy fish were floating all around me!

Gross.
