Rumer Willis is opening up about her own unique experience with giving birth to her baby girl, Louetta Isley Thomas Willis.The 34-year-old actress recently sat down for a lengthy interview with the podcast, and recalled her journey giving birth at home with help from her doula back on April 18.Surrounded by her boyfriend, Derek Thomas, her mom, Demi Moore, and her sisters — Tallulah and Scout Willis — Rumer explained that everything was going according to the birthing plan, but labor came on hard and fast, and she «dilated from two to eight inches in about an hour.»This meant she quickly had to move into a bathtub to begin pushing, but her doula realized that her water was still intact.«She was checking me and felt my water bag bulging, but still not popping, which was wild,» Rumer recalled. «So, I was like, 'Well, should we break it?' She goes, 'Well, can.' I'm like, 'What?!' I was like, 'Are you serious?'»Serious indeed, Rumer decided to take matters into her own hands. «I reached my finger up there, and I'm feeling and it was crazy,» she shared. «I could totally feel this little bag -- it feels like a water balloon, but with a bit tougher skin.»"[The doula] said, 'OK, on the next contraction, just push against it with your finger.' And I popped it," Rumer continued. «I think there's a photo of me and I just have this look of shock and surprise on my face.»From that point on, the rest of the process apparently happened swiftly and was over before she had time to really realize everything that was happening.«It was like, I pushed a little bit… well, I didn't push a little bit, I pushed harder than I've ever probably, but it was literally like I pushed, her head was out.
