Wow! What a beautiful baby! And thank you so much for sharing the story!

I have to admit, I'm a little freaked out. I had the exact same "what if my water broke tonight" thought the day before yesterday (which was also, coincidentally, the day before my home visit with my midwives) But... it didn't happen. Not that I expected it to. I think the thought just crossed my mind so I would finished getting the birth supplies. But I've also had a weird feeling I might end up having a breech birth. For some reason all the birth stories I end up reading are breech babies. 

Anyway, congrats to you and your family! He's so freaking adorable!

I LOVE this part. Trust meets trust. Such calm confidence, such beauty!

Thanks for sharing your lovely story. Your baby is adorable.
