Two Scottish doctors originally invented the chainsaw for childbirth. The cutting device was specifically designed to make removing the woman's pelvic bone easier and less time-consuming during childbirth. The flexible chainsaw also caused less trauma to adjacent tissue than the rigid saws and sharp knives typically used to perform the procedure.

That's probably the most worrying and scariest fact you've given us, especially for women.

HOLY - EXPLICITS - And I have never been so glad to have been born in this century as a woman than I am after reading that  Not that I want any kids either way but if someone came at me with a chainsaw while I was having one I think I would just choose to die NO THANK YOU X.X 

I sure that every women would agree with that, it's not the most reassuring thing to see when you're giving birth

Well I looked it up and it seems like the vast majority of the deaths are infants or disabled people who can't untangle themselves well 

Yes, that would make sense.

Since I'm not an infant or the elderly yet, I suppose I don't need to worry about my duvet too much. Hmm, after thinking about it, she said sheets and not duvets, so perhaps that's why people in the UK don't have a high number of deaths with bedsheets, because most of us don't use them

[Animedragon]

I'm a bit of a traditionalist, and still use sheets and blankets. I tried using a duvet and didn't like it much.

[Zeref]

We have duvets and sheets on our beds but most of the time my sheets end up on the floor or tangled at the bottom of the bed. 

[Sakura]

I usually use a sheet with my duvet/comforter as well. That being said though I have a lot of blankets on my bed. I usually have my sheet, duvet, a couple fuzzy blankets, sometimes a weighted blanket, and several of those fuzzy fluffy throw blankets strewn around my bed. I kinda build a nest when I sleep in all these blankets and get very warm, comfy, cozy. Mostly in the Winter though, in the Summer I can get by with just a sheet over me ~

Q: Where's Sakura?

A: She's somewhere under that mountain of blankets!

[Kirika_Madeleine]

It's not good being without blankets this weather, I hope yours will dry out soon.

[neverletmego]

I have a few extra. If there was a way to teleport them over to her, I would gladly let her borrow some.

I can attest to the fact that if anyone stole 2-3 blankets off of @Sakura's bed, she wouldn't even notice they were missing. 

[Sakura]

That's fair I prolly wouldn't lol I also have this bad habit of every time we go to a store that sells blankets I feel like I need to buy another blanket because it's cute or something x.x 

[Sarada]

I prefer weighted blankets to any other kind of blanket. That's all I need. 

[neverletmego]

My grandmother had an electric blanket once upon a time. I remember using it when I was little to keep me warm.

[Sakura]

I always wanted an electric blanket but I've been kinda scared to use one since my mom always told me they catch fire easily lol ~ I doubt that's true with the more modern day ones but that fear is in me now @.@ I had an electric blanket but rarely used it so now I mostly stick with the weighted blanket too ~ 

[Animedragon]

My parents had electric blankets, first they had an under blanket then they got an over blanket, not at the same time though, they got rid of both because of safety concerns.

[Zeref]

It's recommended to not use electric blankets all night, only turning them on for a few minutes when first getting into bed. It's also advised to not use them if you are pregnant or have diabetes as they can cause miscarriages, and in people with diabetes, easily cause overheating and burns. 

Heating pads and electric blankets cause around 500 fires each year. Almost all of these fires involve electric blankets that are more than ten years old.

[Sakura]

So it mostly has to do with them getting old and shorting out I guess ~ 

[Animedragon]

Getting old and shorting out is the main concern. After all they're basically a blanket with lots of wire filaments embedded in them which the electric current heats up, and being sat on and flexed every night is eventually going to break some of those filaments which can cause arcing which in turn could set fire to the blanket.

[Otaku]

I recommend a weighted blanked or a microwaveable stuffed animal (they have rice in them)  It would keep you warm, electrical blanks are scary. Don't risk lighting your self on fire. I like how much research you did.  

[Sarada]

SDASDDAGGGH I HAVE A MICROWAVE WARMIES SLOTH THAT I LOVE

[Animedragon]

Be careful with that microwave warmie. Don't heat it for too long as they can catch fire if you microwave them too long.

[Sakura]

I never had one of those yet but I kind of want one, they look cuddly

The "yet but I kind of want one" seems somehow significant.

[Zeref]

Who doesn't want a cuddly little plushie for Christmas that can burn down your house in your sleep?

[Animedragon]

I think I'd settle for a cuddly little plushie that won't burn my house down while I sleep
