OOP either doesn’t know or doesn’t care that labor can take hours, and is completely unpredictable. There’s also the issue of finding a delivery room with space to accommodate five observers, in addition to the other people who absolutely need to be in the room.

This isn’t necessarily a bad idea, but the practicalities are significant.

[–] tomi000@lemmy.world 7 points 14 hours ago

It is definitely a bad idea because such a trip, especially in an unpredictable setting like this, can turn upside down real quick and the last thing a woman giving birth needs is some guys freaking out and needing the personnels attention. If you really respect the act of giving birth you should minimize the risks of it going wrong (you could argue that theyre getting paid and its their choice to take the risk, but thats kind of like saying sex workers could do an other job if they dont enjoy it). The same goes for people who want to visit in the first few days after birth, just because theyre "so excited for the baby they cant wait to see it". Think of the woman who went through hell a few hours ago and probably feels like a truck hit her in the face right now. Leave her the f alone. If they invite you, cool.

Don't mushroom trips also take hours?

[–] sneezycat@sopuli.xyz 9 points 22 hours ago

They are relatively short, they should do LSD just to be sure!

[–] AndyMFK@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 17 hours ago

Maybe 4 hours. LSD will last maybe 8 hours so perhaps a better(?) choice

[–] Dragonstaff@leminal.space 2 points 18 hours ago

Imagine 8 hours of toddlers watching a birth.

[–] Furbag@lemmy.world 0 points 18 hours ago

I think the mushroom trips feel like they take hours to the person taking it, but really hardly any time passes at all.

I wouldn't know. Haven't had a chance to do it yet.

Set up a camera and run the video to a nearby viewing room

[–] rainwall@piefed.social 42 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

They can watch video of live births at anytime without all the effort of coordination. There are countless videos of women giving birth if a video will suffice.

[–] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 4 points 22 hours ago

Damn your right, this kind of just ruined the post for me.

I cannot stress enough how traumatic this would be for everyone involved

[–] seraphine@lemmy.blahaj.zone 40 points 1 day ago (1 children)

wdym, the baby wouldn't even notice /j

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 34 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Birth is pretty traumatic for babies to begin with.

You start off on this dark, warm room. Floating in a little bubble of fluid. All you've ever known.

Then all of a sudden the bubble is gone. It's slowly draining. Either it popped on its own, or worse, somebody poked it with a crochet hook (I know the real medical tool isn't a crochet hook but that's legit what it looks like).

You're squeezing headfirst through a hole smaller in size than a CD. And as soon as they see your smushy little skull they are putting a sticker on it to watch your heart rate.

It's bright, it's cold, it's dry, and it's loud. The complete polar opposite of everything you've ever known. You have to start breathing and then you can't stop or you die, but nobody tells you that right away. Someone slaps your butt and someone else cuts your blood tube to mom.

No wonder they come out screaming.

And that's a typical, uncomplicated birth. Let's not talk about suction cups or forceps or cesareans.

[–] Malfeasant@lemmy.world 13 points 23 hours ago

My daughter came out grey & floppy. It was (probably) only about a minute before she started crying, but man it felt like an eternity.

[–] affenlehrer@feddit.org 31 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Never watched a splatter movie on shrooms, not sure if that's a good idea.

[–] FunctionallyLiterate@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The difference is your option results in death, while theirs results in life.

[–] affenlehrer@feddit.org 10 points 1 day ago

Only if everything goes well and even then it can be very bloody.

[–] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemmy.zip 3 points 23 hours ago

I watched the what we do in the shadows movie on mushrooms, wouldn't recommend. I don't like horror though so ymmv

[–] andros_rex@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Not a splatter movie, but Stalker was a hell of a movie on shrooms. 11/10 experience

[–] humorlessrepost@lemmy.world 1 points 20 hours ago

Still better than the Patience episode of Wondershowzen.

[–] VubDapple@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Stalker is just a great film, drugged or not.
