Sally (Salome for realz but Sally for short) Clio was born at 6:43am on 12 March 2010 into my hands in water. She was 7 lb 6.5 oz (3.36kg), had a 35cm head, and was 48cm long.
Short birth story: contractions started slowly at 2am Thurs, no idea when my waters broke, got more intense during day but ate breakfast and lunch so not too bad, and then contractions got closer together, midwife came about 8pm (I had said it would kick off at dusk and it did!), got in the pool at some point, started pushing about 3am, swore up and down to myself that she was going to be born by dawn and yep, 6:43am!
So doesn't even begin to cover it but that's the nuts and bolts. I'll get to writing a really detailed one soon.

Congratulations! I didn't check for awhile and here you are, a mother! :-) I'm glad to hear it went well and hope for a more detailed rendering of the birth at some point.
