Oof! I had the "vacuum cleaner" for my first one! But then, I hadn't started dancing so, of course, the next one *flew* out in seconds (four hours).

Caesarean here, but that was Before Belly Dance, so what do you expect? Baby was breech but nowadays I could probably sort that with a few strong undulations

. NOT!!!

C section for the first and the second was born less than 2 hours after I woke up in labor. What I remember most about the second one, was swearing at the nurses.....LOL. I know she didn't "slip" out and this was well before I started belly dance. I suspect the author would have had an easy birth even without the bellydance.
