I'm anxiously awaiting the day when Kentucky catches up! <br /><br />This is definitely the way I'd go if I had the option. A lot of women are scared at the prospect of having a baby at home, and this is a lovely account of just how beautiful that experience can be, even with a slight complication, like having the cord wrapped around the baby's neck.

But it's nice to live vicariously through your birth story. And yes, I bet you did feel that ring of fire- he was the same weight as Greenlee and she hurt SO bad coming out- and that was WITH an epidural LOL. <br />I'm SO happy for you and your family that the birth went as planned and just beautiful!
