My first daughter Lindsey was born via an emergency C-Section (footling
breech).  I was away on business (the due date was a month away) and was on
a plane trying to get home when she was delivered.  They waited as long as
they could but I was about an hour or two late.  What a strange trip that
was.  

Any way, years later we were watching "She's Having a Baby" on TV for the
first time, not knowing that TWW was part of the movie, and ... it was a
very emotional experience, and continues to be to this day.  I too cry
every time I watch the movie and or hear the song (sometimes even just
thinking about it, sniff sniff).  

Oh and Lindsey is fine, she'll be eight this year.
