"Any thoughts on 'total rupture' or a baby starting to breathe while the =
head is still inside mom's body...?"

Knowing next to nothing about this, it seems to me that the simple way to prevent baby from breathing too soon is to have mom birth in a nice warm tub so that he doesn't know when he's been born!
