My son was born during Northern Exposure. We had forgotten to set the VCR, so I was eager to get the labor over with, but it took over 14 hours. I got to watch the 2nd half of the episode while my kiddo was getting his bath. I was starving (and also craving beef), so my parents brought me Arby's. I remember eating and watching TV in the delivery room while my epidural wore off, like I was just hanging out in an unusually chaotic hotel where indescribable pain is required for check in.
You never fail to inspire or impress with your ability to tell a story. My one scolding—You could never look Alfred Hitchcock even with cosplay. You never had his jowls. You are an exceptional human, Ms.Burley and your sons are truly blessed to be able to call you mom
A birth story!! I love these. Thank you so much for sharing, Diane. Your storytelling genius shines through even the ups and downs of a birth. :)
I was a little hesitant to put in that I really wanted that cheesecake. I sound terrible!
