Can't imagine labouring in the dark. DD was born in early December, and contractions really started about 4:30am, so it was light until she was born at 5:20pm as the sun was on its way out and the whole room turned a beautiful pinky orange.

Also can't imagine labour without the midwife I had last time. Ridiculous, in a way, and I love the one I've got, but I just can't imagine her not being there. To the point where I think it's almost a sign that she will be there.
