Aah, ooh, ee, awww -- Tennis and the Delivery Room

Watching Sharapova play Azarenka play tennis, on mute now. Had the sound on earlier, and the screams always remind me of my Dad, the Baby Doctor.

On a few occasions while working at the hospital, and some others, I came in close proximity to the Delivery Room, and heard the noises coming out of there.

During a snow storm in 1950, I was stuck at the hospital for a few days, and heard it all, close up.

Women's tennis reminds me of those occasions.

I don't think I could watch tennis if it were not for the MUTE button on the controller, both the men's and women's matches. Who started the screaming?
