"360, 000 babies are born each day. 251 per minute. 4 per second. It happens everyday, every second. It is a perfectly commonplace occurrence. My child took 51000 seconds to be born. The second that your child is born is a perfectly astounding one. One little second. A perfectly miraculous moment in time. Unfathomably immense. Life changing. It has happened to me once. It is the greatest accomplishment of my life. It is the greatest accomplishment of my body. I am a parent.
Every parent is a survivor. Every story is a miracle. I invite you to hear our stories."
