“During my labor, the anesthesiologist came in to set up the epidural, but I couldn’t bring myself to look at the needle. The expression on my partner’s face told me it was daunting. Out of nowhere, I felt a splash! Turns out, the anesthesiologist accidentally overfilled the syringe, and we both ended up soaked!”

“I was so relieved it only took us 20 minutes to reach the hospital, or else I would have delivered my little one in the car! Once we arrived, I plopped down and groaned through my contractions. I must have scared the little girl in the waiting room with my loud noises! After a few more groans, the admissions staff asked me if it was my first time. I couldn’t believe my obviousness! Right then, I knew I needed an epidural.”
3. TimandSara
“My contractions hit me like a freight train, one right after another, making it impossible to keep track of them!”
4. LilaJoy
“I felt good vibes the day I was due — it was the night of a full harvest moon! I thought, if I mixed together all the old wives’ tales, labor had to start. I chowed down on eggplant and took a four-mile walk with one foot on the curb and the other on the pavement. And guess what? It worked!”
5. MiaL34
“While pushing, I accidentally sprayed the doctor with a stream of pee! Thank goodness he had a mask on. I hadn’t even considered that would happen — I was more worried about pooping! When my daughter grows up, I’ll definitely tell her the story of how I peed on the doctor while bringing her into the world!”

“Believe it or not, I had no idea I was pregnant. My periods had been irregular, and I felt completely normal. One Saturday night, a sharp pain woke me up. I thought I had a urinary tract infection, so my mother-in-law and I headed to the doctor. To my shock, I found out I was pregnant! My husband was in class, and I texted him to say we were off to the hospital because I was in labor. He panicked and rushed to the delivery room while I just focused on what needed to be done. The labor went smoothly, and after I settled into my room, my beautiful 7-pound baby girl, Emily Rose, was born. To my surprise, our friends had somehow gathered at the hospital to greet us! I was overwhelmed with love and support.”
