Exceptional I was at my grandsons home birth. Thanksgiving Baby by lauralumummu True Story Flash contest entry

Anxiously waiting!  At 2:30 am the phone rang. "Mom it's time," he said. Dressing quickly, we rushed over. She was in a birthing tub in the dining room. He was comforting her, the midwife was on speaker coaching us.(What if something goes wrong I thought.) She was crying," it hurts!" Tears came to my eyes,  "Do you see the head?" my son asked. "Yes!" I exclaimed. "It's coming!" She shouted. Reaching into the water, he placed him on her chest, holding the baby, rubbing his back," Breathe!" we shouted.  As I prayed, cry!. He hollered at 3:41, Thanksgiving morning.  Recognized Author Notes Hawkly was born on Thanksgiving Oct 11 at 3:41 am, 2021 (Canadian), and my son and wife did everything, as the midwife was late. I am a retired nurse and was just amazed at the bravery of this home birth, my kids were born in a hospital with the lol, all-natural epidural.
