birth details
Baby mason Christopher was born at 6:53 pm. Labor started at 530 am with a high leak in my water breaking. Off to l and d I went!! Midwife broke the rest of my water and then contractions started to build. Got the epi at 4cm and 100 effaced. No shame. It was about 2 pm. Started pushing at 530. Baby was out with a forcep assisted delivery...which is totally ok btw...and got a 2.5 tear! Lol...she said it wasn't a 3...just 2.5. Haha. I had the worst anxiety of my life and I can't wait to get my antianxiety meds started again so I can be a good mom!! Dh was the only 1 in the room and my family and friends completely were rockstars and left us alone!! It was magical. I started breastfeeding about 2 hours after birth and it's going ok!! He was 8.4lbs and 22 in long! Full head of hair and little pudgy cheeks!! I will post pics tomorrow. I am so blessed. Any questions please ask away while they're fresh in my mind! Lol.

Re: birth details
How bad did the contractions hurt before your epi?

Congratulations, nk!! I'm so happy that things went well, except for the tearing of course, but it sounds like you're handling it really well. Enjoy, and will look for updates from you!
