And seeing it in new posts made me read it again. And cry again.

I never did write one.

This was the fruit of my labour, this was the reason for my suffering, this slimy being was what I had just worked for! How amazing to hold your child immediately after birthing it, knowing at once the connection between the labour and reward.

Omigosh. I'm 27 weeks now and that part made me totally start bawling. I think I'm going to be teary for a while... Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful birth story. I find reading stories like yours so inspirational - I'm so glad you posted it!
