Breech of Faith-"I am learning that in birth (in everything) there must be trust regardless of the situation. I am not talking about blind trust without education!!! I am talking about trust in myself to birth this babe the way I know I can ....." -  Also see her birth......Angela's Birth

Blair Vaughan - baby Blair is born after all the right cards fall in this mom's favor. Un-medicated breech birth with an audience.

Caitlyn Sarah: A premature birth, for mom it is a beginning of her education about learning all she can about birth. This is a sad story.

Mark's Birth - the birth of a 9 pound 8 ounce breech, a story with an edge. (Baby is transported to NICU)

Miss births her surprise breech - "No one could believe it. The doctor was walking on air for the two days I was there, and we were the talk of the hospital that week. I love sharing this story with people." If you want to chat with me about this or anything, feel free to e-mail me.

Delia births breech - "At 32 weeks, my midwife said she could feel the baby's butt deep down in my pelvis. I thought "Oh god, no!" ".

Bethany's Breech - "A parade of medical students in green scrubs introduce themselves to me and line up to get a look at a "real" breech birth". (episiotomy mentioned)

Ida Births Lily - "My doctor held her body, waiting patiently, and commented, "This part always seems to take forever."  I wondered if I would have to push really, really hard, or if we were all going to get frantic trying to get the head out." 

Tale of Tzion - "I asked him if he would even consider delivering a breech baby vaginally.  His answer was a slap in the face, each word resounding through my body like a harsh clanging bell......"

Sophie's Story - I planned a serene home water birth, the pool was set up, scented candles arranged and community midwife briefed on my desire for no intervention, water delivery and a natural third stage.  So what happens?  He arrives a week early, weighs 7lb 13oz and the home water birth goes completely up the spout (excuse the pun).
