She is actually the 15th K, and I&#8217;m the 5th. It was my mom&#8217;s mom that started the tradition so all my cousins, aunts, brothers and sisters, and my mom all have a name starting with K. All of them have a name with a meaning.  I searched everywhere and I wanted an Afro-centric name, because all of my siblings have Afro-centric names with a really nice meaning.  So after searching [a] really long [time], I think this was the only name her dad and I really loved. His grandmother&#8217;s name is Isabelle, and they would call her &#8220;Belle&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-full wp-image-1130\" src=\"http:\/\/socamom.com\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/kamila_mcdonald_family.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"It's a Family Affair!

Kailani was born right in the middle of the semester &#8211; my last semester &#8211; so that has definitely been challenging.  I started going back two weeks ago &#8211; I Skype&#8217;d into my first class, and then last week I slowly started transitioning back.  One of my professors is very &#8220;baby-friendly&#8221;, so I was actually able to bring her to one of my classes, and then the rest I kind of work it out with family.  <strong>We go to school together&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Eva:<\/strong> You and your husband started your lives together with a very beautiful, thoughtful, elaborate ceremony &#8211; did you bring your little one into the world with the same amount of ceremony?  Even if it was a private one, are there any little details that you can share with us?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kamila:<\/strong> My mom currently resides in Ethiopia, she came up for the birth, and my sister came up from Jamaica. I also had a friend that lives close by in the area.  They all snuck past the very tight security and were able to have a very festive mood in the delivery room, which was really nice. I don&#8217;t think I could have done it without them.  I went into labor two hours after my mom got off the plane, and she was the last person to come in. \u00a0Now that I think about it, now that I have been through it, I wouldn&#8217;t have been able to have done it without all of them.  There was someone on every limb massaging right foot, left foot, back, hands.

And I think here in the US they probably push the help of the epidural a little bit more.  I went in with the intention of having her all natural.  I couldn&#8217;t think of anything else that I wanted to bring from home &#8211; I think I kind of had everyone there.
