I hope you don't mind me intruding on your journal, especially intruding on your journal to disagree! ;) I found you through friends of friends, and noticed this post.
It's funny, because just the other day (exactly a week ago, actually) my nephew was born with a lot of brain damage due to not enough oxygen at birth, and as our family was grieving my significant other said: "If men gave birth there would be enough research done so that they would have monitors inside the uterus and could prevent this from happening!" -- and here there is such a thing. If my sister in law tries again, she would benefit from something like this.
(I should end this comment by saying we got some good news the other day- the baby had less subcortical damage than originally suspected, and can breathe and eat on his own, and has stopped seizing. So we'll just take it one day at a time and see how things develop.)
