vacation and birth in Eilat

Hi all, Just came back from a much needed 4 day vacation in Eilat with friends. My husband and I also celebrated 26 years of marriage. Wo--I sound really old, but actually feel very young and not much different than I did 20 years ago,, although I was much more radical then. Now i see a bit more grey, not only black and white. It was super hot, but the pool and beach were great. The most amazing thing happened when I was there. One of my ladies decided to give birth earlier than scheduled (as if you can ever make plans with birth!).She lives in the Negev and was planning to birth with me in my clinic on the Moshav. Instead she came to Eilat and birthed at the home of a wonderful friend. Even her coach flew in. It was a first birth, and a bit long in the beginning. It began with her water breaking, so we were careful about good hygienge and not doing vaginal checks until good labor was established. So in between laps in the pool, dining in restaurants, nighclubs, and snorkling, I would pop over and check heart beats and dilation and give some advice, and then it was time to push, and she squatted on the floor and had a wonderful birth, surrounded by her man, sister,friends, family, midwife and coach, with American Indian music, candles
