Caprie Gray Wooden was born at home an June 13th at 9:02am. She weighed 9lb 1 oz and is 21" long.

Short version: I woke up at 12:30p Friday night with back pain. Contractions got more and more intense. By around 7am, My skilled midwife could tell something was keeping the baby from moving down. I got on hands and knees - chest down, butt up. The baby moved out of my pelvis and quickly turned. Now, she progressed down and I was ready to push. I am glad i was home, as I am not sure what path that would have taken at the hospital.

She is perfect.
