Peachiness

I was paged last night around 11:30 by a first time mum, a planned home birth. She wasn't quite ready for me to come yet, so I managed to get a couple hours of sleep before going out at 2am. I got a speeding ticket on my way there, but managed to make it there in plenty of time to deliver a baby girl, at around 6am. This girl was also 8#4oz! It was a beautiful home birth. The parents were so connected, and the mom was so responsive to do whatever I told her to, and things sailed along and were just peachy.

Postpartum went long but well, then I after I finished with her, I had to rush to the clinic to see the morning appointments, and though the administrators cancelled my afternoon clinic, I had another mum call that wasn't feeling her baby move much, so off to University hospital to do some tests, which all turned out fine. Consequently, I was exhausted (but still happy about the great birth) by the end of the day!
