As Labor Day approaches I always stop to remember my daughter’s labor day weekend birth. While she was born the day before Labor Day, I still associate Labor Day with the day(s) I labored and gave birth. I started labor on that Friday. I remember distinctly finally admitting that I was in labor as I was getting a pedicure. Despite it being my eighth baby, I was a bit frightened and excited. Baby number seven had been a quick, three hour labor. What would this labor hold? While Baby Ocho didn’t come quickly, she came beautifully. Share a birth story, a birth tip, or just reminisce about birth for this easy going blog carnival about labor day(s).
The rules are simple:
- Write a post featuring your thoughts on giving birth, labor and the like
- Send us a link to your post at birthactivist@gmail.com by September 3
- The blog carnival will run on September 6, 2010 (Labor Day)
- We’ll send you a link to include in your post!

I wrote my Labor Day post!
This is a beautiful picture! I am giving a lecture to some resident doctors about natural/traditional birth and want to show them some picture examples, would you be willing to let me use your photo in my presentation?
