So there we were in deepest West Hillywood attending the first reunion of The Sanctuary birth class of early 2010. Five families started with similar birth plans which resulted in five completely different birth stories. Overall we had two cesarean sections, one hospital birth, and two water births at home. It was so nice getting together again, we share a mutual obsession for our own babies and each others. All the babies had met previously during our many hours of class time, no surprise they were completely comfortable with each other and so curious! At one point one of the babies let out a big belch and a unanimous roar went up from the whole crowd.
Here’s the first yearbook shot of all these babies:
