Welcomed DOULA baby girl- Felicity- weighing 8lbs 3oz on 5/10/10 at 4:43pm.
Wow! This birth was way different from the first I attended. It was much slower. Babies truly do some when they are ready, and not a moment before.
I was able to apply counter pressure and be there emotionally for mom. I held her foot/leg. She held my hand. She is a STRONG women. My arm was shaking after.
I didn't realize how physically demanding births could really be. I was fine until I had to get out of my car to pump gas. It felt like I was hit by a car. I've gotta get in better shape for sure!
Overall, this birth was wonderful. There's nothing like watching a life come into the world. It's a miracle- everytime.
