Birthing 101

SO! Last week, Jan. 26, I was able to watch one of my childhood friends give birth to her beautiful baby girl, Caydence. She weighed exactly 7 pounds and I think she was around 18 inches. I was so glad that my friend, Jessica, gave me the opportunity to be there to witness it. I was really worried about it at first and thought that I would just stay by her head the whole time, but I knew I would regret it someday if I didn't watch. I was front and center! I'm actually in her birthing video!
She had a very nice labor. She went into the hospital around 6:30 am that day, they began inducing her around 9:30, and I came to see her around 11:30. She had the baby around 4 in the afternoon. The time was going by so fast!

Some people thought this would make me scared of having a baby, but I'm so excited to be a mom someday! If anything, it made me less scared and gave me more of an idea what to expect. But, if I plan on it being good, it probably won't happen. Stupid planning curse.

Life is a miracle!
