We had our 6th birth class last night and it was amazing. One of the girls was 39 weeks so we knew she would be going any time. We got there and the parking lot was full and Hope, one of the midwives, was there. Must be a birth! When we asked, turned out one was already in labor and Jennifer, from class, was on her way in "to be checked". She wanted a home birth but b/c someone else was already in labor, she had to come in. Well, she gets there calm as can be. Gets checked and is 8cm!! 27 minutes later, her daughter was born. Holy fast birth. The tub was still filling as she was crowning. Her husband came out to tell the class the baby was here and mom was well. Our teacher had to run out during class since she is the birth ass't. So neat to see how calm the whole thing was. You would never know there were 2 laboring women in the center.
He brought the baby out for us to see after about an hour and she had latched well. So precious. I can't even believe that will be us soon.
What a great night.
