So . . . I've been reading a book on the Bradley method. It appeals to my sensibilities. And I was just trying out some of the exercises mentioned. One of them is a squat. As I'm doing the squat, boy goes into the crane pose and informs me that this is the proper birthing position.

You know, he was pretty obnoxious before, constantly going into this pose just to prove that he can do it. Now he just looks at me, grins, and squats down and pushes himself up and tells me I must practice with him.

I don't think so.

I think if you gave birth in the crane post the kid would shoot out across the room!

I think that is an opportune time to play the "push you down" game.

Which book are you reading? I've been doing a lot of exercises, too. Be careful not to push yourself too hard. After I racheted up my sets I think it caused me to bleed a bit- I called the doc and she said that might have done it, so I shouldn't be too gung-ho...Anyway, nice to see my thighs getting toned again ;)

I'm not even sure how the kid would come out in the pose.

Probably at a high rate of speed.
