Finally

I finally got to catch my first baby as a registered midwife! Hoorah.

As most midwives know, your first year of practice can be anything but straight forward. If this birth was anything representative of how my year will go, its going to be quite the ride!!! The delivery was great and both mom and baby are healthy but man, what a complicated set of events.

Since I haven't actually caught a baby in about 6 months I felt like I was all thumbs. I got home and I was wiped OUT. Not from being up all night, in fact it was a short daytime birth, but from how much my brain had to work to remember everything...

Today is my day off and its been a slow start. My goal is to finish my Dream in Color Shrug!
