LOL I loved how the doctor told you to push for real. ROFLOL Thanks for sharing Katrina. Can't wait to Fall Into Reading!

At 8:30 he broke the water whatever, and you were born at 11:47 or there about. With Boyd,I worked 'till 2PM, decorating cakes, then we picked you up at school, went home for my suitcase, and in to the hospital. He was born at 6:08PM without even an aspirin. I was 44 by this time and my tolerance was high. Same Dr., same hospital. The most wonderful experience in the world.

Interesting to hear. It's also funny how the stories are a bit different 9 and 2 years after the fact -- much briefer versions peppered with perspective. This was fun. Interesting to hear.

I don't hate anybody for having short labors -- I wish them on each and every one of us!! <br/><br/>It's so much fun to remember this time in our lives and I'm glad Shannon's challenge encouraged you to do the same.
