Actually, child birth hardly show much evidence of being painful in most mammals.
Jehovah generally sucked so much all around that only those unfortunately enough to be made in his image could inherit the anatomical deficiencies underlying bad back, lousy knees, and oh, yes, painful child birth.
Retina of an eagle's eyes suffer from the same shit quality bass ackwards high level design as the human eye. The wires that send visual image from the retina to the brain crosses in front of the light sensing cells, casting shadows, blocking the retina, and generally reducing visual acuity, rather than crossing behind it as even an 8 year old tinker would known enough to ensure.
For a more elegant eye, you need to go to the Cephalopods. Their retinas are actually correctly oriented and wired.
