    Did you cry? I cried when I saw my sister give birth, one of my best friends give birth, and of course I got a little misty eyed when my children were born.

    Unfortunately, yes, I don't/can't go into a full blown bawling session over "awwwww" moments.

    It's embarassing and inconvenient to say the least. I'm emotional over alll the wrong things. Like movies and TV shows where I have no actual attatchment to the people involved.

    Congrats to your best friend! I hope she had a healthy, beautiful baby. Pictures?

    I'm going to be giving birth to my very own in a few months and ugh..just knock me out, please. I get emotional watching "A Baby Story" on tv but when I'm really there..ugh. When my mom was giving birth to my baby sister about 4 years ago, I turned white as a ghost seeing my mom in so much pain along with all those loud machines everywhere and the tubes..needles..ughhhhhh. I stood in the hall and heard the first cry which was nice.

    Eep. My mom always wanted me to come along when she had my brothers but I never wanted to see it. No desire to see it, no desire to do it, it skeeves me out. It must have been amazing for you though. My friend is a nurse and delivered her first baby recently (she works in the ER, not L&D, but the husband brought the mom to the wrong department and baby decided she was ready before they could move). She said it completely changed the way she felt about herself and people in general.

    Yekhefah- it really was amazing. I was in shock. the midwife was taking pictures and then took one of me, just sitting there. like " uhhhhhhhhh......" (that was the placenta part). Ive been thinking about going back to school to get my RN license but after seeing the birth, i think I'd really like to work in a maternity ward. it really was neat, and a miracle.

    Im just going to keep rambling, but the thing that amazed me the most, was seeing how much pain my friend was in. but as soon as the baby was in her hands. she was smiling like she's never smiled before. it was crazy energy. how someone can love a thing SO much and you've never seen it before.... I dont know if that makes any sense...

    next post pics!

    I've been present for all my kid's births. While it is an amazing, beautiful, crazy thing, I have to say that I'm really really glad I have a penis.

    im going to agree with you and actually say im a LITTLE tinsy weensy jealous. (i love my vagina though)

    I dont want to have kids for a long, long time. this experience even made me think of going the adoption route.. i dont think im ballsy enough to fit a 9 pound baby through my vaj.

    Stop all of this childbirth/baby talk! It is killing me! Seriously. I'm getting all choked up here. And the fact that I'm currently watching "Jon and Kate + Eight" is not helping.

    Congratulations on your friend's baby. He is a miracle and he's beautiful.

    Gawd I am still so terrified of delivery. I can only watch the first half of the baby shows then have to turn them off during the L&D. I keep wondering how i'm really going to do it. I just have to remind myself that millions have done it before me and one way or another she's got to come out.

    OMG he is a cute little chunk of love.

    I remmeber when I had my kid. It was awesome. I couldn't sleep for days afterwards because I was so blown away.

    Oh, and the epidural was a Godsend.
