Oh, I so remember the bits you're describing! The satisfying validation of the contraction strip. The silliness of people assuming you'd be embarassed to have anything showing. And the bitter disappointment with the tub -- I think I even whined, "But I can't even enjoy the jacuzzi because I'm in labor!" (And the meanies don't let you come back the next day, when you could actually appreciated the bubbly jets.)
As for the title, I assumed you had a pleasurable, relaxing labor -- why else take your time like that, right? :-)
