Didn’t know where else to post this so I figured I’d post here as some might appreciate it.
Wife and I just got home yesterday from the hospital after giving birth to our first child, a healthy girl!
The hospital staff was very respectful for our wishes to deny vaccines, Vit K, antibiotic eye cream, etc. my wife wanted to give birth as natural as possible. Unfortunately my wife just wasn’t dilating enough,and the nurses, midwife, and doula spent soooo much time and effort trying different positions and stretches, rather than pushing for epidural + Pitocin.
Unfortunately we did need a c-section, as too much time had passed and infection was becoming a possibility, but I figured it would be worth sharing that not all health professionals are lost to “woke” culture!
Was a great breath of fresh air as we were expecting doctors to come in and give us “the talk”.
Looking your first child in his or her eyes for the first time, and them seeing you, is like realizing the whole point of life and the earth and the universe. It's like finding out why God created everything; the truth is in a newborn's eyes.
The same feelings are there when the fifth child is born. Your love just gets bigger!
Beautifully expressed valley-lily! 💕
Congratulations to you both on little miracle! 👶Blessings be with your family! 🙏 our daughter is a doula.
Savour each precious moment!
