That sounds like an incredible day, sarameg.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

It just killed me watching Miss P. When he was crowning, she went down to the foot to see (and the OB was AWESOME with her.) When Lis started getting distressed (asking for forceps even though she hates them but she just wanted him OUT) she went back to the head and was just stroking her mom's neck. Not freaked out, not alarmed, just being there ( I was holding some part of her most of the time, and she wasn't tensing at all. Until he was put on her mom's tummy!) And the thing is, I think it did help. L calmed down and was like, ok, no, I'm just exhausted. Next?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Back in LA... piles of mail, lots of Ruby love, don't wanna unpack.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
But only for a week.
That is both generous and sensible.

Aww, that's so adorable, sarameg!!! Sniff.
eta: and valentines!
This? THIS is how you try to convince me of the goodness of February? This to a girl who has only once ever been dating someone on Valentine's, and at the time, I was in Texas and she was in Wisconsin? (And we both lived in DC)? Yeah, I think you'll have to try harder. That's like ANTI-proof of February's goodness.

It was really. well, surreal doesn't explain it. It was just. IS.
Like I said, I was a bit strangely detattched. It was huge. Logically, I knew it was huge and I'll process that eventually. But there was me, with the cam (as requested, worst videotaping ever, because I don't know how to do that! and hey, I'd seen L naked when she's needed an epipen when 5 wks preggers with Miss P and freaked out and oh hell, I hope they are less prudish than me cause I got a lot) and my hand on Miss P, seeing if she was freaking, and L's distress and splurt BABY NOW and fluids splurt (um, is my mom peeing? Nope, that's his bath )and omigoodness, BABY. AND HE'S AWARE. And peeing everywhere!
It's hitting. I saw a baby born. And held his big sister's hand. And she rocked it. She was a part of it. She saw her brother born and loved it and helped her mom and she just rocked!
