My son's birthday is on the 20th of July. When caught unawares his dad still asks me when is his birthday? The 21st? It's a running joke in the family by now. I usually say to him I was the one on drugs that day, if anyone should be confused about the dates, it's ME! (The doctor didn't tell the nurse he gave me shot of some morphine based painkiller just before she did… Or maybe it was the other way around? Either way, I was so goofed, I took one look at the baby and passed out)
I can totally see this, Sumi.
My first was here so fast after the whirlpool tub visit-no time for drugs with him. He was supposed to be born on my birthday and I told doc no way is he gonna have to share his day. I promised to be at the hospital first thing the next morning - to be induced.My son's birthday is on the 20th of July. When caught unawares his dad still asks me when is his birthday? The 21st?

Quote: Ditto, except I went on and off for 2 WEEKS. A friend of mine dragged me off into the middle of nowhere here to this ancient midwife, she must've been 90 at least, but whoa, that woman doesn't take nonsense from a baby bump? I knew I was in trouble when she tossed the mattress off the bed and told me lie down on the planks, "you must not get comfortable" she told me… By the time she was through with me baby was turned the right way round and dropped and ready to deliver. (And I ached all over!) Sadly it didn't last. So I went back to the doctor, C-section. Craziness, but wow, when I saw him it was all worth it!
I think we better stop with our childbirth stories before we worry Bill![]()
