      I wish I could have been with my daughter when she gave birth. I was not allowed to be there for any of the births by her now ex-partner. Her first birth I didn’t even find out about until his mother rang me to congratulate me. The 2nd birth she messaged me from her bedroom while he was distracted by the midwife (home Birth both times). We messaged until she was just about to give birth. So I had the chance to comfort her and talk her through things that she didn’t experience the first time. She has another partner now, he’s a good man, her children love him. So I’m hoping 3rd time lucky. Macenna’s mum is so lucky Romeo is a good man too. Macenna and Romeo will be fabulous parents. I’m so happy for them both.

I also had a long labor and pushed for exactly an hour and 40 minutes! And I also stood immediately after to use the bathroom in the L&D room after having an epidural. So crazy what our bodies can do! So happy for you guys!🩵
