“The world turned, my eyes almost popped out of their sockets, my lungs were screaming for breath, my heart was in a deadly race for the finish line and the lower part of my body was in a furnace worse than the one improvised by Nebuchadnezzar…and then…ugh!” 

“The head is showing…now another nice push…” Nice? NICE! You must be joking, but I obeyed and the next minute it felt as if I was floating somewhere above my bed.” 

“The most wonderful and blissful moment of my entire life unfolded. The doctor placed our little son into my arms, umbilical cord still tying him to me, and covered in a creamy substance. I looked down at the little miracle in my arms and choked up.

Every effort, every discomfort of the past months, every stitch and pain, every helpless moment, every fear and every uncertainty dissipated. My baby! Oh, it was so worthwhile. It was so amazingly wonderful… a total miracle that left me speechless.

He was the most beautiful thing I have ever laid eyes on, and I was part of him in a way that no-one will ever be able to take away from me! I gently held him close for a few seconds before he was taken from my arms to get released from my insides and cleaned up.”
