Sharing the birth of baby Theo on her blog, Santa Cruz Family Doula Collective, Kim wrote: "At exactly 5 a.m. I pulled my baby through my legs and up to my chest with the sweetest relief. I couldn’t believe I had survived the past three hours and somehow still gotten the home birth that we wanted so badly.

 

"After a couple of minutes, I opened baby’s legs and discovered that we had a little boy! Shocked is an understatement— I was blown away and totally elated.

 

"I have always dreamed of having both a daughter and a son but throughout my pregnancy, I had convinced myself we were having another girl. In that perfect moment, all of my dreams had come true. My family was complete."
