Waiting Game

While we're waiting for the next batch of birth stories... you can't hurry a new mom, we all know this!

I wanted to link to an absolutely beautiful birth story by Courtney Kendrick. Please note, I do not have her permission to post the whole story, but maybe if she gets enough comments from us she'll surrender and fill out the survey.

Read her story here.

Her description of contractions, to me, is spot on:

"They felt like my uterus was turning to concrete--churning and hardening--and melting. Repeat."
