"Houston's Memorial Hermann hospital system live-tweeted an open-heart surgery for the first time in history last February. In May, it live-tweeted a brain operation performed by one of the world's leading neurosurgeons.\nNow the hospital system will take its social media experiments a step further by becoming the first to live-tweet a C-section baby delivery on Wednesday morning. \nThe fun starts at 7:30 a.m. CST from Women\u2019s Memorial Hermann Hospital. Obstetrician Anne Gonzalez will perform the surgery on a 39-year-old mother whose identity will remain private.  Tweets from the @houstonhospital account with the hashtag #MHBaby will let followers tune in. Photos and video will also be posted to Facebook, YouTube, Storify and Pinterest. \nSEE ALSO: Behind the Scenes of the World's First Live-Tweeted Open-Heart Surgery\n\nBut the operation comes with another unique twist. Gonzalez will be assisted by Dr. Amelie Chu, who will wear a GoPro head camera to give followers a live-streaming surgeon's-eye view of the procedure. Obstetrician and gynecologist Sherri Levin, meanwhile, will answer followers' questions and explain what's happening during the operation. \nThe intensive social media documentation will have a number of benefits, according to Gonzalez. \n\"It will allow us to pull back the curtain on the most common surgery that many women need to have in order to deliver their baby. It also will help families to prepare for their own deliveries and show them what to expect,\u201D she said. \u201CIt is an amazing honor to be involved in the most important event in this family's life and we are thankful they are sharing their story with the public.\"\nWill you check this out?
