Latest Job Taken By Robots: Pregnant Mother

An up to $20,000 robot called NOELLE exists for one purpose: To give birth over and over so doctors and nurses can train with a huge variety of complications. Called a Maternal and Neonatal Birthing Computer Interactive Simulator, NOELLE does it all. Breach deliver? Blue baby syndrome? Umbilical strangulation? Bring it on. The robot produces all the vital signs that medical types can check, including a pulse and breath rate. She even pees, and can be given injections. Like all complicated robot systems, NOELLE comes with an INSTRUCTION MANUAL. I DON'T want one.

Thanks for posting about Noelle. I wonder if she ever gets to give birth normally or if the doctors are only interested in the 'challenging' cases lol.

I did notice one thing missing - at $20 grand they should be able to clothe her in something like a
knocked up t-shirt. Or after hearing what they put her through, maybe she would prefer something advocating natural birhts.

Btw, I didn't find 'ask to read Noelle's birth plan' in the Instruction manual lol.

If you do make love to her, don't bother using birth control. She'll probably just get pregnant anyway...
