Birth This Week

I went to another birth with Candace this week. It was fantastic. I was called in the morning and done in time for lunch with Candace! Hah! Not that long births aren't great too, it was just a treat. It was also au naturale and the mom was ecstatic to have done it without meds.

The nurse was totally awesome. She gave excellent recommendations and even let the mom start pushing at about 8 cm because she was already fully effaced and "floppy." It worked wonderfully, and she birthed her baby with ease. Baby was over 9 lbs and the mom barely had a scratch. She was a super-woman for certain.

That's all I have to say about that. It was great.
