a missing piece from the last art nite

What to do if you must deliver the baby unexpectedly:
warm up slowly
do not over do it
avoid long, tiring sessions
stop if breathless, tired or dizzy
do not hold breath
you will require a lot of leverage
so avoid extreme motionBecause, ultimately you cannot control all the events surrounding your birth.
So, Avoid:
alcohol
cigarettes
and choosing responsible health care
You see, you were born kicking and fighting to live; who knows survival better than the U.S. Army?Just act like the natives (stubbornness, a refusal to give in to problems and obstacles that face you, will give you the mental & physical strength to endure).
Make sure, in the foothills, you avoid flash flood areas.
In mountainous terrain, avoid avalanche areas. Near bodies of water, avoid a site that is below the high water mark.
Also Avoid:
cholera
malaria
plague
sleeping sickness
rocky mountain spotted fever
and typhoid
And what ever you do, don't forget your trousers. Knot each leg at the bottom and button the fly. This excellent manual describes and clearly illustrates the techniques of survival.The experience and knowledge you gained through this and through your army training have bearing on your will to live.
