Cyber Shower Party!! My First Birthing Story




As a mother of four kids each birth was definitely unique. The most challenging delivery for me was my first-born daughter. Not knowing what to expect was really hard for me, I was determined to deliver her naturally and I followed my own wishes and I had them naturally. I was blessed to have had a 15-hour labor with no complications. One thing that I focus on through the process is definitely my own mother. She was pregnant 17 times and gave birth naturally to 14 children. 12 sons and 2 daughters, I am the youngest of the family. She helped me get through the process and encouraged me through her own story of pregnancies and birthing. When she was pregnant with me in her third trimester, she could hardly walk. She truly gave her all as a mother and continues to do so today. She literally had to crawl at the end of her pregnancy with me. Her strength and courage has become my own. She is the most inspiring person to me and her strength lifts me. I hope to someday pass on her strength and courage to my own children. I am nearing the end of my fifth pregnancy and I can hardly wait. It's such a reward at the end of labor and such a joy to hold my baby and look into my baby's
eyes for the first time and how amazing is it that the pain quickly fades away.

  1. Congratulations on expecting another baby!

    I think that having older women who have experienced birth and child rearing is so important. I think the lack of these role models is a part of the reason why so many from our generation struggle now with things like natural birth and breastfeeding. Many of our mothers may mean well, and truly want to help us, but they may not have had those experiences to share.

    Best of luck with baby's birth and thank you for joining in the shower!
