Stop the Birth, I Want to get OFF!

My friend Brittany wrote this great post about a vomit filled ride at a carnival.   It sounds gross, but the story is great.  I loved it so much I am actually going to blog about it twice, so go ahead and read it.

You know the Tilt A Whirl Rides?  Have you ever wanted to get off?  Have you ever yelled for them to stop it?

even though every time you go by you plead with them to SSTTooopp TTHHHe RRIIIdddeee!!! But of course they only hear ST… TH… RI….

Sometimes moms feel that way during birth.

Some moms sail through the whole birth and just keep on going.

But sometimes a mom will say, “I think I’ll have the baby tomorrow instead.”

They want the ride to stop for a little bit.  Catch their breath, rest and then keep going.

Or maybe just let someone else birth the baby for them.

Well, we can’t stop birth.

All we can do is keep on going until the ride is over.  Having good support by your side can make it more fun, or at the least more manageable.

The good thing is if a mom feels this way, the ride is almost over.  So just keep holding on and know that you CAN do it!
