Pregnant after IF
Had a very interesting day..I had a BABY!!
I will post my kind of CAZY birth story when I am not so totally whiped out. But I wanted to let my internet family know what happend.
Jacob "Jake" David was born today at 2:15pm. I was only in labor for about 6 hours. Contractions started at about 3AM was addmitted a to L&D by 10AM and was fully effaced and dialted by 1PMish and started pushing quickly after. I wouldn't say the whole experience was painless, but thanks to the wonderful drug called an eppidural I could at least stand it!
We did have one small hiccup, in that Jake is on the small side..He came out weighting about 4lbs. Nobody is sure exactly why. It all happened very fast and I still feel like I am having an outer body experience. They are doing some tests on my placenta and Jake is now in the NICU. All his inital testest came back awesome, but we are watching his weight. Hoping he gains quickly. So he is definatly a little peanut!
I will post more details and pictures when I am semi-coherent, You ladies are truly the best and I don't think I could have gotten throught the last year and a half without you,
WIth much love,
Alissa
