In honor of the Labor Day, I thought I'd participate in Shannon's MeMe. It's about...well, labor. And not the kind you get a day off from, either.
How long was your labor?
Approximately 30 hours. Fun, right?
How did you know you were in labor?
I was in excruciating pain whenever I would lay down. It was impossible to sleep. Oh, the foreshadowing...
Where did you deliver?
In my bedroom. Yes, we planned it that way.
Drugs?
Unless Gatorade has a very dirty secret, no.
C-section?
No.
Who delivered?
I did. To the waiting arms of two amazing midwives. The third midwife was dispensing gatorade and rubbing me. A lot.
If you want to play along with this meme, just cut and paste the questions into your own blog, and leave a comment so I can read yours!
And, Happy Labor Day - I hope you aren't laboring like this today. Or if your 10 months pregnant and really want to be? Then I hope you are.

OK, I'm gonna be honest here. My last baby was born 26 years ago and I'm still having flashbacks of labor so I just can't answer these questions! ha! Everyone says you forget the pain... ummm.... I dunno, I must be just difficult then cuz I haven't. Grandkids are much better. No labor, all joy!
