Today I witnessed my first ever birth. It was a normal vaginal delivery and I'm sure it wasn't as gross as it could have been since I've heard stories about women peeing and poo-ing throughout delivery. But all I could think as the woman was pushing, was:
- How on earth is THAT going to fit through THAT?
Midwife (to woman in labour): Now a big push because we can see the head.
Mother of WiL: I can see its head, it's got a lot of hair.
Me (thinking): THAT'S THE HEAD?!
I've also got to remember to breath while watching births as it seems I have a habit of holding my breath while the contracting mother does. It makes one a little short of breath at the end of the whole process.
