For her, I know it's because she doesn't want to miss a thing. But she needs the sleep.  Sometimes, by the time I do get ...

When a Birth Plan Doesn’t Go As Planned

Peyton's Momma was compensated for this article by Choices Matter, however, this is our actual birth story and experience. Having a birth plan is a great idea. I had one. A very detailed one with everything written out. But there was one thing I forgot to think about, pain management. I knew I wanted an epidural but beyond that, I hadn't thought about it. And then the day arrived. The day Peyton was going to be born, or so we thought. We arrived around 11 am on a Tuesday morning to start the ...
