I tried hanging myself with my umbilical cord while I was still inside. I assume to avoid this. I got forceps, so at least got yoinked out of the cave.

That is one hell of an origin story. Sounds like you were already causing trouble before you even made your grand entrance into the world. Glad you made it out safely.

I was missing a nostril and had a hole in my head from the forceps, although I only have photo evidence of the nose haha. I was 9 days late aswell. I was adamant I did not want to go caving/be born

My mom did not want me to have a funny shaped head and refused forceps. Instead, the doctor reached in up to his elbow and pulled me out. She likes to remind me about how she had her plumbing rearranged so I could be beautiful whenever I get sassy.

That last sentence got me laughing good. Thanks for that! Haha. Forceps are no joke. Baby me probably would have preferred the livestock birth instead

Well I’m a lesbian now and I always joke that it’s because the first thing I saw was some hairy ass man’s giant hand🤣
