Somewhere in all of my reading about childbirth before Aidan was born, I came across an anthropological study of Pygmy women, who birth enormous babies compared to the mother's small size. I just did a google search for it and came across this article by Gloria LeMay, which has lots of other goodies in it too. I was trying to find a non-midwife source for the information, but had no luck, just an article from UNICEF saying how tragic it is that the Pygmies don't have doctors to birth their babies. Okay, in all fairness, the article means to address inequities in Congolese society, and childbirth issue is just one of many things mentioned.
