Felicia shared the details of Carolyns birth...
she was named after her grandmother Carol because of the events that took place.
"She decided to make her appearance very quickly so I didn't get to have the relaxing water-birth I was planning.
After 3 (mammoth) contractions she was born. Grandma (who had just arrived
from out of town that afternoon) caught her before she hit the bathroom
floor. Dad got home from work 10 minutes after she was born. Then we opened the emergency birth kit and tried to have everybody find the cord-cutting kit.
What we learned.
1. Keep emergency birth kit in the house, not in detached garage.
2. Do not have lids sealed on emergency birth kit. Gamma lid would have
worked better.
3. Make sure that Dad (or other helper) reads through instructions before
the birth.
4. The cord cutting kit is small and easily hidden.
5. Firemen gag when they see afterbirth.
Carolyn is beautiful and we are happy she is here."
