Wow. That's quite an adventure! Congrats mama!

I just love the fact that you had your dc write up their own stories or at least tell you so you could write it. That is one amazing birth story! What a wonderful experience.

Thank you

Kailyn wrote her own, and Connor dictated his standing next to me. It was such a once-in-a-lifetime sort of experience, and sure to become family legend for years to come -- I wanted to be sure we preserved those memories permanently for them, and for Brianna as well

I think it's beautiful that you captured your kid's memory of the birth as well as your own. Sounds like it was a pretty magical experience for them! And the birth itself sounds like it was out of a Hollywood movie - almost unbelievable with her sliding out and right under the bed!! Congratulations!

Congrats, mama! What a "fun" story to tell. (My doc almost dropped my dd, because he was barely in the room when I pushed her out and no one expected her to "shoot out" in one push like she did so he had to sort of jump in front of me and catch her

so I can relate to the all of a sudden being there.

It is so cute that your kids shared their version of what happened. glad to hear she is doing well! congrats!
