Mazel tov! Yeah, I never got to push, but I’d been in labor for 18 hours and had been contracting every minute for about 7. I was fine when she suggested the c-section. I also felt justified because she’s like “Yeah, he’s sunny-side up, sort of diagonal, and about as far up as he can possibly get. This would have…

My son also makes me reenact Pikmin, which is basically us walking around with our arm raised over our head, pretending it’s a leaf sprouting out of it, and then hitting things with that arm. So... high-brow/low-brow, it’s all about balance...

Honestly? It’s really not all that terrible. And you get really cute babies afterwards who do cute things as they get bigger.

For those of you who have not given birth, allow me two descriptions of what that’s like based on my births, a c-section and a VBAC.

I missed it first time around, too, but it’s awesome:

God bless this magical unicorn of a woman...

1) that is a brilliant idea

I can’t even begin to describe the face I am making

Impressive that it still worked!

As long as they show up to the fight wearing not hideous colors...

The rocking chair my mother labored in with me was that orange and brown. I was SO happy when she had it reupholstered...

Nope. It’s a tie between these shades of orange and green aka The Color Of Everything In The 1970s

Also: I see people reach out like this occasionally so I figured I’d try. What’s a girl gotta do to get out of the greys here? I’ve been on Jez for an embarrassingly long time! I’M GOOD, I SWEAR!!!!
