We were recently at a party, full of new parents, talking about their recent births. We were part of a conversation that went something like this:
A wife: "Yeah, we went with a midwife"
Me: "Huh. What was it like with a midwife?"
The husband: "Our baby was delivered by hippies."
It was hysterical. Or maybe you just needed to be there.
Regardless, they were very happy with the experience. Even were told to drink a glass of wine as the contractions got harder! That sounds like it would make it all go much easier...
Hahaha! My brother's wife had their 4th kiddo a week or so ago--also delivered by hippies, and at home, too! They seemed happy with the whole experience. :)
