Suggest U undertsand what those papers say - just
citing them may is not enough.  Anesthetic effects of
N2 kick in much deeper than the cold feeling of

As for MJB & his rantings, suggest U read the advise
of UHMS on diving while pregnant (such as the workshop
they published).  Indeed it is stated that, though not
condoned, diving past the 1st trimester of the
pregnancy is acceptable provided some very
conservative depth/time constaraints R adhered to.
