Giving birth to my son was the most memorable experience of my life. I chose this experience because it was the most memorable and important experience in my life. I have witnessed the birth of my nephew and god daughter; however neither experience plays such an impact like my own experience. I remember feeling the first cramp, calling my mom and my mom calling the doctor. Hearing the doctor tell me I was not there yet but I was very close. I woke up the next morning feeling cramps and thought it was time but wasn’t quite sure. Upon arrival to the hospital I remember feeling pain and anxiety not knowing whether or not they would admit me. After being admitted, taking the epidural and relaxing, and waiting for the moment to push. I remember dad, my best friend and my unborn son's god mother, all talking and telling jokes to keep me relaxed and us playing with different ways to spell our son's name. Once I started pushing I knew my life would change forever and I was moments away from being a mom. I remember like yesterday, the moment I fully pushed out my son and I held him in my arms, words could not express the emotions or the amount of love I felt still feel for my son. His dad and I were blessed with a healthy baby boy 7 pounds 11 ounces 22 inches. Childbirth is very imporant to childhood development, children that face difficulties or complications during childbirth are at a higher chance of facing developmental challenges as oppose to those without complications.
