The Birth of My 3rd Baby (by Francie)

Original was uploaded on 2020-12-02

Also known as, the one in which I coached myself out loud, much to my surprise.

The one that happened during a pandemic.

The one with an all-new birth team after we left NYC for a breather and decided to stay.

The one that happened in the house I grew up in.

The one I’d planned on doing without anyone else in the room, but instead did with everyone and *my mother* (and my dad!) in the room.

The one when I knew all my people were with me, no matter where they were.
