BUT IF SHE HAD ALREADY SAT ON THE BIRTHSTOOL,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' I.e., if her pains of parturition had begun already. Rashi holds this to apply to a woman whose pains had started before sentence was pronounced; accord ing to Tosaf, even if the pains had begun only after the sentence. For the child is considered as of one body with the mother only as long as it still is in its normal place. But as soon as it has started to move, it is another body and thus unaffected by the mother's state.');">⁹</span>
