Having Babies

I remember when my sister had her first child. I was a teenager, and it was the first time I'd been close enough to witness anything like it. My sister insisted on a "natural" birth (no drugs), and her labor was long and intense. She had one of those births where the baby scraped along her spine as it came out...anyway, I remember how the pain was driving her crazy, and then when I was sitting in the waiting room, I could hear her screaming (damn near shaking the walls) as the baby was coming out...I thought that the pain had driven her insane. I kept thinking, "Poor baby, coming into the World, and his mother has lost her mind, and will never be the same." :(

Anyway, her husband came out and told us that the baby was healthy, and we could go and see my sister in a few minutes...

Much to my surprise, when about 20 minutes later we went in and saw my sister, she was happy, and talking, and as normal as she had ever been. It blew my mind. :hihi:
