Birth may not be a disease but i've heard it can be slightly painful, I myself found it painful and also needed medical intervention to speed things up. My baby had his umbilical cord cut as soon as he was born and does not appear to have developed cloven hooves or anything since he was born, Nor do the many other billions of children who have their umbilical cords cut. I think this is for the likes of celebs who never actually have to lift a finger with their children, Not normal everyday mums who have to actually get up and do things after their baby is born.
