I really do need to get better at this blogging thing...
Last week on Thursday night and Friday morning (4/2 and 4/3) I witnessed 2 babies enter the world just hours apart from each other. Both births were very quick and beautiful.
The first baby was born only 1 hour and 21 minutes after my preceptor and I arrived at the home. It was a smooth labor and birth and a gorgeous 9lb 4oz baby boy was born into his fathers hands. Simply amazing!
I arrived home around 1:30 (ish) am and got a call from my preceptor about 2 hours later. Another mom in labor! Here we go again!!
We arrived at the home a little after 4am and another baby boy was born just after 6am. Another quick, smooth labor for this 3rd time mom. Baby needed a little help with his transition to the outside world and after a little stimulation he was just fine.
We are currently on call for 5 more moms and I can't wait to be there for their births as well! I love what I do!
