Chapter 1: The New Midwife

Flashback:

"I'm pregnant"

I remember saying to my boyfriend since high school. But the reaction wasn't the one I planned.

"I don't know what to tell you"

Ummmm I was kind of expecting a little more happiness in his tone, I mean just last week he said he wanted me to be the mother of his children. I was angry, beyond angry at him but I noticed that he was slowly drifting from me, I missed him but he didn't want to be involved. I decided to have a home-birth, needing that immediate bond with my baby, in my own home, without any beeping machines.

That's when I met her, Spencer Carlin, my midwife, a woman who found my pregnancy nothing short of a miracle. She's involved in everything from ultrasounds and Lamaze classes to mommy-to-be classes. I feel a special connection with her, I don't know how or why I just do…

" Ashley…"

"ASHLEY!!" Spencer yelled.

They were sitting in her Lamaze class with Ashley sitting Indian style with Spencer kneeled behind her rubbing her shoulders, it beyond felt good.

"oh I'm sorry I kinda spaced out" Ashley chuckled lightly.

" It's alright, just focus at the task at hand, you have to practice your breathing, relaxation techniques, I mean labor is not a walk in the park, and you know our deal NO DRUGS."

"yep I know, all natural" I said what was I thinking when I decide to do this oh yeah I wasn't.

How as that for the first chapter?Yes? No?
