She's going to kill me! (Also, I need a hotel room and as many d20s as you can find...)Huw: Gah! I'm hoping it was a slow, puttering-along labor and not full-blown heavy-contractions for the whole time. Regardless, I'm glad that everyone came out okay.Kahuna Burger: To be fair, the midwife did mention the Lotus thingie before. She brought it up at the end of one of the checkups in passing. I think we screwed up by just nodding politely instead of saying "Uh, hell no." I think she may also have been operating on autopilot -- my friend Cookie said that when she came in and Cookie said, "The baby's already here," the midwife ran down the stairs so quickly that she dropped her clipboard. So evidently she was a bit stressed out by us taking care of things without her. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />And I'll be giving a few special people the placenta-card this year... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />Harmon: Thanks. I really needed to get the thoughts down in writing somewhere before I forgot everything.Aurora: Good luck. That sounds like a wonderful program!</blockquote>
