the five stages of team development: forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning.
Bruce Tuckman introduced and identified the five stages of a team development. These steps are the forming stage, storming the stage, norming stage, performing stage, and adjourning stage in that chronological order. Furthermore, these steps usually apply universally to all teams/groups regardless of the team members’ demographics, purpose, location, goals, and cultures. In the forming stage, the team is just starting to come together and is characterized by anxiety and uncertainty. In storming, the group is characterized by considerable opposition and conflict.

It is so awesome that all of your children were born on holidays. What a conversation starter! I cannot imagine having a baby all alone in a department store. You are a trooper.

They recommended babies to stay with mothers due to safety precautions. The hospital had computer id badges for baby and parents.

I have no idea how hard it must have been to have been so young, alone, and in the middle of a department store giving birth. However, it does show how strong and courageous you are. It is interesting how their is so much panic surrounded around giving birth outside of a hospital in the United States. In many other places around the world child birth is not done in a hospital. Other places women give birth in water.
