What about delivery though? The actual "labor" is aptly named since it is a muscular event, but what about the (necessary) time when the baby "drops". I'm neither biologist nor doctor enough to rate even an opinion about this, but it seems that it COULD involve gravity. Does anyone who knows any more about this have any ideas? art smith (smith@udel-dewey.arpa)
