ocean white's birth story

[breathbox]

Monday, August 6, 2007, during a trip to the bathroom, I lost part of my mucous plug. This sent me into a rather large panic attack (or that could have been the two cups of coffee I had drank in order to gear up and clean/shop/pack/plan for our upcoming homebirth). Of course, nothing laboriffic happened that day. Or the next. Or even the next.

Your birth was beautiful, I remember so well those uncontrollable pushes, my body just made me push like no other with every peak, I remember so well...

This gives me a baby bug, I am glad my sister is having her baby soon so I can stave it off longer! lol.

Congratulations, this truly is a beautiful HBAC.

And Ocean, wow, he is perfect!

I had to take a break from reading because I started crying. What a GREAT birth story!

GOOD LORD he is beautiful!!!
I'm crying, I'm so sorry i wasn't there. Plans?!?! What plans did I have, nothing that couldn't have been cancelled!!! Next time Lucas will have my number on speed dial. I'm so happy it turned out so perfect. I'm coming down to the valley tomorrow alone. I can drop by some veggies if you don't mind. If not, I'll see you soon enough!

i just remember you saying when we were trying to line up the cleaning date that you had to be home by 4pm on friday...im sorry i didnt call, but by the time everything got moving, it was already noon or 1pm.

we're still hangin' no visitor style...but maybe one day next week?

i cant wait for you to meet him, though. he's really cute!

ah for Leon's karate practice.
Anyway it happened perfectly the way it was meant to be, he's absolutely gorgeous. I don't know if I can handle that cuteness in person.
So happy for you lady!!
