I disagree. You could end up dead. Before the age of modern medicine, about 5% of women died in childbirth. The most common factors were infection and hemorrhage. Still happens today, though less commonly. This lady had necrotizing fasciitis and toxic shock syndrome. She's lucky to be alive. Sometimes life sucks.
