Fi StarStone, a British woman who runs a child-care advice website, posted constant updates after going into labor last Friday, according to the Daily Mail.

Her decision to tweet about her labor was to "dispel some of the myths of childbirth," she told The Daily Mail.

After posting nine updates that were followed by hundreds of people online, she gave birth Friday afternoon to a baby boy in a birthing pool at home. Oscar John Michael Victor Stone, weighing 7 pounds and 9 ounces, was born following a labor during which his mom used no pain relief.

When she went into labor, she posted, "Here we go lovelies! Contractions started at 2:30am! Baby decided he wants to come to his sister’s 1st birthday party on Saturday!"

Her final tweet before the birth was, Still going my lovelies. Still no pain relief."

And just 20 minutes after the birth of her son, the mom posted another update: "Introducing Oscar John Michael Victor Stone. Thanks so much for all your support. I’m shattered and sore but the happiest mummy on the planet."

Her husband, Richard, said his wife had decided to send updates during labor because so many mothers follow her through her website, Childcare is Fun.

And the proud mom of two told The Daily Mail, "I did it this way to show them the positive side of childbirth and to show it could be done without pain relief and while tweeting the whole time."

No word yet on when Oscar will be getting his very own Twitter account.
