Ricki Lake’s Video Recording Of Her Home Birth Makes Doctors Uncomfortable hecklerspray was born on a cold March morning just after the sun peaked over a lone mountain. In the distance an eagle soared upwards, as if to carry the news to the heavens themselves. As we lay there in our mothers arms, we had our first conscious thought: "Is this a dumpster?" And it was. We had brown water in our lungs within the hour. It was good for us. Our immune systems got fortified and we staved off getting spoiled. Couldn't get away with that nowadays though. Now whenever anybody wants to scissor-split a baby out you have to do it in a fancy hospital - as if doctors and nurses help anyway. Ricki Lake is on to them. She knows hospital birthing is all but unnecessary - and she won't stoop to their level. She wants to prove it too - that's why she recently recorded her home birth for you all to watch. With your eyes.
