The birth

Do you remember the circumstances of the birth? My experience of the longest night. We went to the hospital because we thought you were starting but it was a phantom labour. I went in after work on the Friday and stayed in all night. It was the hottest summer. It was very uncomfortable. It was a heat wave. You can equate with the moment of delivery. The moment of wonder when the baby actually arrived. I don’t know when I was allowed to hold you. You were gathered up wiped over and weighed and then handed back to mum. Then you slept in a cot at the end of the bed.
