Birth stories

I’m the kind of person who could read birth stories all day long. They are all different, incredible, and have the most magnificent ending. So of course, OF COURSE I had to write my own — all in excruciating detail. Emphasis on excruciating. And detail.

(I never wrote David’s birth story, but I keep meaning to string all my hazy memories together before I forget it altogether and start saying things like “Well I don’t know what these women are complaining about, my labor was simply a delight!”)
