…: Meet Presley :… Portland Oregon Birth photographers

June 13, 2011 6 Comments

So, a bit of why there’s not a lot of   “leading up to”  photos in this little ol’ birth blog.  Here is a brief synopsis for my readers.

Mama and I are texting the night before, after she’s just arrived at the hospital. Conversation goes something like this, at about 10PM before B-day:

K: I’m not sure whether my water will break tonight or tomorrow, but I will keep you updated!

Me:  Great, I’m excited!

K: Everything’s going really slow, Jimmy says take a nap.

Me: Call me at a 5!

{insert me sleeping here}

4:58AM  my phone buzzes with a text.  Husband says: Water broke, at a 4.

Here, I’m thinking to myself…”Oh, I have some time, I’ll linger in bed a bit, have some coffee…”

I am just contemplating actually getting out of bed when my phone buzzes again.

5:18AM: she’s at a 6 now

I get ready, grab my gear, and I still think, I’ll stop and get some coffee. I turn to pull into a stand and I hear my phone again, it’s 5:46: “she’s at an 8”.
Needless to say, by the time I got to the hospital, the beautiful Miss Presley was very, very close to entering the world. I was about 6 minutes from missing the whole enchilada.

Next time, I’ll keep coffee in my car…



Birth, Photography

Erin

One of those pregnant goddess types that makes me reflect on my own days of gestating and is a gentle reminder that I never looked like this 🤣🤣🤣
