Home birth tonight? - an update

By Ruben Obregon

As I mentioned in my prior post about home births and the ACOG, my wife decided to give birth at home..

This past week she's been having episodes of Braxton-Hicks contractions ("false labor"), and just this morning she complained of contractions and back pain, a tell tale sign of true labor. That's not to say these aren't Braxton-Hicks contractions, after all, sleeping in a bad position can result in a sore back.

But stay tuned, little Judah, who's already been in the world for the past 38 weeks, could be born tonight. Stay tuned for some pictures...
