My first knowledge of this was a swooshing fluid motion over to my right view, and then it occured again. I remember coming out to what I have always called "my first light". I will never forget what I later assume to be the doctor. Big smiling happy smile and eyes with what I learned later to be glasses. He had a shiny bright thing on the top of the left side of his head(my right). I remember him holding me, turning me and my first cry, cutting the cord, and then being eventually transferred to what I assume to be a woman who had something on top of her head. They were all very nice to me and then she took me to what I later assume was a white metal slatted hospital type bassinet. She cleaned me up and put a top on me which covered my fingers, gently put me on my abdomen and gently soothed my back with little pats. I could see to my left side, flat white wrungs of the first little bed type thing. It was a flat yet shiny type white, clean looking, but not totally new, like with a little texture. I remember that shirt that covered up my hands, and I remember something felt like it was on my bottom, but I never saw that. I was wrapped up snugly in a cotton type little blanket. I don't remember seeing that first man again(doctor, I assume) but I was aware of some motion of people in the room where I layed in that bed. Since that experience I have always been keenly aware of smiles. The next I was aware of was being in a silk type cushie quilt type blanket in my (what I find out through experiences) was my Mother. I saw the driveway and the path, and remember having the man with that box(which turned out to be my Father, taking my first remembered photo) He made silly noises and my Mother took the blanket off of my face just before the assumed picture was taken. I saw her beautiful smile at that moment and she was always so nice and beautiful. Loving. Oh, in the womb..I may have forgotten to mention, that the wet in there had a swoosh swoosh gentle peaceful noise. No pain and very comfortable, the whole experience. There was no pain going out the shoot to my first light. . Beautiful. These facts have never changed. Thank you.
