We've officially been here over 3 hours now. Mom is finally feeling some contractions but she's still up and about.
PS: It's one thing to have a birth photographer, but why do you think women are responding to this form of live documentation?
CD: It's a great way to be in the moment and focusing on you instead of notifying family with minute-to-minute updates. You won't be distracted, but you can still have your friends and family keep up and be there, in a sense. It's great for people who have loved ones who live out of town. In fact, one was a scheduled C-section, and she was telling all her friends and family leading up to it, "If you want to follow along . . ."
It's not for everyone, but if you're at all considering it, I'd absolutely do it.
