I have my take-home baby!!!

vkbaby09 · September 2010

I'm so sorry I haven't updated at all - this is the first time I've been online at all since before my induction on Friday (we've had constant visitors and bfing is a very time-consuming, yet wonderful thing). Thank you all for your thoughts though - I really appreciate all the support you have given me over the past year and a half that I've been here.

Brendan Lewis L___ was born on Friday, September 10th at 3:37pm (at 39 weeks). He was 7lbs 15oz and 22 inches long and is super healthy! We are so in love.

My induction went really fast, but pushing lasted for almost 3 hours. He ended up being sunny-side up and I tore internally, externally and had to have an episiotomy. Needless to say I'm pretty sore.

I'll try to work on my full birth story soon and post pictures then. He is so beautiful and looks so much like the twins. I still can't totally believe that he's here!

I just started crying when I read your title. I'm so happy for you. Congratulations on your sweet boy. I hope that you start to feel better soon and I can't wait to see pictures.
