Taylor's Birth Story (I helped)
•
Season 1
•
Episode 5
Just before 5 a.m. on September 14th, my wife Taylor's water broke. Everything about it was unlike the movies: nothing was an emergency. She woke me up and said, "I think my water broke?" We called the midwife who said go ahead and fall back asleep; tomorrow you're having a baby.
In this episode we talk about how our little boy turned out. Literally. From the water-break to the induction, to the contractions, to the bath, to the bed, to the head, to the baby. We explain the birth and some of the lingo you'll hear in the delivery room. And we have fun doing it.
Note: we go into a lot of body details here and we play sounds of labor. I think you can handle it, but be warned! :)
