Twitter employee Claire Diaz-Ortiz has to be the most dedicated worker in the world ever. Why? Because she live tweeted the birth of her daughter.
From her first contraction to holding her baby girl in her arms, Claire tweeted every step of her labour to her followers.
While some doubted the authenticity of the whole thing, it is apparently true (even the part where she and her husband broke down on the way to the hospital).
We can’t include all of Claire’s tweets (you can see those here @Claire on Twitter) which is why we’ve picked a few so that you can get a general overview of what happened…
Currently googling: Did my water just break? #labor

Lesson: when you live-tweet your own labor, some will hate. Luckily, your husband will laugh in the corner. #inlabor
