I was out for dinner with family when I felt my first contraction. It was very mild but we went home. I laboured at home for a while, pacing my hallway. It kicked into gear after a few hours and we were going to leave at midnight, but I felt nauseous. So I said let’s wait a minute so that I could throw up at home then we could get in the car and go. Baby was born then in my hallway (I didn’t end up needing to vomit).
