We had been planning on creating a playlist for laboring, made mostly of soothing music. I finally began to compile said list once labor pains had begun so, I was not really taking the time to make the perfect playlist. I began to dump entire albums into a list aptly titled, Baby Time. Once we actually made it to the hospital we never even played the list until Owen arrived. It was about 3:30AM when we were transferred from the delivery room into the maternity ward. Time seemed to disappear. We were so amp'd on adrenaline that there was no notion of tired at all. Somewhere around 4 or 4:30 we remembered that we had music with us. I started Baby Time, and after a few select tracks came Brian Eno's Music for Films. I think it actually helped us all fall asleep, even if for just short bits of rest. Little Owen cried a lot. Pretty sure he was tired and freaked out being in his new, dry environment. It didn't phase us much, we were very happy that he was finally here...
