This may or may not be of any help but here goes.

I had a girlfriend years ago who had CP. She did everything I did physically even was married and had 2 babies. I was with her during her last pregnancy and recall her hanging onto a pole with both hands as her husband tried to pry her off to go to the hospital to deliver her second baby. She was a fighter. She was well into labour by the time he got her off that pole and off to the hospital, just in the nick of time.

I'll never forget that.
