Baby!

3 comments

Good morning! We just returned to quarters after a field birth of a baby boy. It was Mom’s sixth kid, and nobody had time for much of anything other than “Holy smoke! Here comes the kid!” He just shot out like a greased pig. We arrived on scene at 0144, baby delivered at 0149.

Both Mom and baby are fine. I offered to allow them to use my name if they chose.

They declined :)

    As far as I'm concerned, there is no experience that even comes close.

    I actually felt a little bad for the mom.

    There's nothing like an apartment full of people that you don't know, squatting between your open legs.

    Wait.

    What I mean is…

    Oh, you know what I mean.

    Anyway, I didn't 'catch' this one…a firefighter did. But I do have a stork pin from my old job. And actually, when we delivered a baby in the truck, the company would put a little blue or pink stork decal on the front fender. It was kind of neat.

    And, seeing the all family together in that small apartment, everyone smiling… Well, it just made my night.
