I'm a mommy of TWO!!! I'm still on cloud 9
First of all- Buffalo gtg's don't mess around! Thanks for the labor dust
I had a few strong contractions when I got home last night, they died down, woke up @ 4 with some stronger ones and then they started hitting 3-5 minutes apart. Called my MW (who is amazing!) around 8, she was here by 9. I labored very peacefully around the house, we filled up the pool around 12 or 12:30, I got in around 1 and my water broke almost instantly. I started pushing (really let my body do most of the work) around 1:15 and he was born @ 1:37 pm in the water, at home
I was SHOCKED by his weight- 10lb 4oz. He has the cutest little fat rolls & is such a chunker. He looks so itty bitty to me though, especially since I'm so used to Charlie. I do feel a heck of a lot skinnier though!
I feel GREAT! No bleeding problems like last time, I did tear along where I did w/ Charlie, 2nd degree, but no stitches or anything. Hopefully I'll still feel his well in the morning.
It was such an amazing & peaceful experience, no rush, hustle bustle, rules & regulations. I got to catch him out of the water & didn't have to hand him over to anyone. He has barely left my side in the past 5 hours. LOVE IT!
I'll post pics & his name soon, don't worry. Just waiting to tell family first. And thanks for holding off on Facebook- we still have some people to call
