Title: The Gynaecological Hammered Penny

“If the membrane bag of fluid...had not broken by the time the midwife arrived the wise woman would put her hand up…and break the membrane with a specially sharpened fingernail, or thin coin.”

I'm enjoying the posts you are making to your blog.

In this case - when our first child was born, my wife's water's had to be broken (that child is still late for everything!). I don't think a hammered coin was used though :) They were all at home, safe!
