Labor & Birth Story

It isn't so bad - I said that a minute after my son was born. I think the 'worst' part was having the energy to push. All things considered, that's not so bad.

One of the first things we ever know about childbirth is that there is pain involved. I certainly knew that but that never stopped me from wanting a child. I figured if millions of women have done it before me (and most have gone on to do it again at least once...or many times!), I'd survive it too and not regret it.

I hope my story didn't make it sound scary. It's all good in the end. Looking at this perfect human being that we created is a reminder of how worth it it is.
