Hannah's Birth Story: An Unexpected Home Birth

At Hannah’s 2 day pediatrician check up, the nurse was filling out some new patient paperwork and asked me, “What hospital was she born at?” I paused and said, “She wasn’t born at the hospital, she was born at home.” Those are some words I never expected to say.

Baby Rabon #3 is a…
