Hi ladies! My name is Courtney. I just had my fourth baby today (second son) at 39 weeks 6days! Due date was Monday the 8th!! Carmine was born at 12:41am on February 7th. He weighed 6lb 9oz and he's 18.5 inches long. He's so tiny, especially to me since my other 3 kids were over 8lbs. He breastfed immediately after birth! I started having contractions, they became closer and closer together then headed to the hospital with hubby. I was in labor about 4 hours and he was literally out in 1push. The DR lifted up my nightgown and she saw all his hair already coming out. I did chose to get an epidural. I've had one with my first but went all natural with my second and third. But I felt everything on my left side, for some reason it just did not take. He's healthy and just beautiful! Thank you for reading! It's 4:39am and I'm dead awake!!
So happy for you!! He is just beautiful! You are the cutest lady and you've always been so kind and helpful on this board. I think you also mentioned your husband is in the military, please thank him for his service. Congrats to you both!!
Congrats! He's so handsome! And one day early!? I guess this shows that no labor symptoms really means nothing and labor can come whenever it wants! Congrats again on your little guy!
Lurking from May... I love reading the birth stories! Just wanted to say if I can look an ounce as gorgeous as you do after delivery that would be amazing! Congrats on baby too
