My daughter and her husband waited five years before they decided it was time to have a baby. Then it was twins (Which was quite an event for an only child and the youngest in his family. My daughter had babysat but never for an infant.)

When the second baby had still not come out - 45 minutes hard labor after the first - she sobbed, I don't want to do this any more.


Her doctor said, If the little girl isn't out in five minutes I'm going to do a Caesarean.

Aghast, my daughter produced Alison.
