Attention, Mamas! Will You Tell Us About Your Birth Story?

There are approximately one infinity different experiences that accompany the miracle of giving birth, unique to every parent.
Perhaps you emerged a rosy-cheeked, glowing fountain of fertility. Perhaps it rained hellfire.
Whatever you remember, assuming you haven't completely blocked it out of your memory, you probably have a story to tell about the time a person came out of your body.
We are working on a special project, and we want to hear about it (and if you had a home birth, we have a few additional questions we want to ask, too).
We'll read every answer, but nothing is published without your permission.
