On May 3, 2010 we welcomed Baby E! This birth was a very quick one. I'm lucky I listened to my 'doula instinct' and arrived as soon as I could to the hospital, as the first-time mom and dad insisted they would call me after getting 'checked'. After finding E's mother was full and complete during her initial check, we only had to wait a few minutes for the doctor to join us in birthing suite until it was time to push. I used a lot of back pressure, and E's mom and dad worked wonderfully together as a team to get her through each contraction. A dozen or so pushes later, sweet baby boy E was born, just a little over an hour after they arrived at the hospital!
Once again I'm blessed and overjoyed to share in a birth. Especially since E's Dad and I have been friends for nearly fifteen years. Happy Birthday, Baby E!
