he was born into my hand (with the help of Maria) in the birthing tub we had setup in the living room at home. I practiced hypnosis and really deep meditation to keep myself relaxed and peaceful during the experience of my labor. Things went slow at first but once I hit 6 cm I got in the tub and he was born in 20 minutes. My family quietly watched, respecting my process. I stayed calm and floated alone in the warm water as he quickly moved through me with with no real effort on my part. I never really had to push - it was awesome. I held my baby to my chest all warm and wet and purple and loved it (and so did he).
