Getting ready to go to a homebirth
My homebirth mom is in labor. Her water broke about 1/2 an hour ago. I'm eating a protein filled breakfast and then I'm out the door! Send positive vibes her way!

I've been home for awhile now. Mom had a great 4 hour labor and pushed for about 20 minutes on her hands and knees. The sweetest baby boy was born at 10:51am and weighs 9lbs 4oz. Mom feels great and hopefully is sleeping now. She did an awesome job!
