Baby Gio arrived 11/08/2014 at 7:48am at 7lb 7oz and 20 1/4". Contractions were tough but I was able to go through with my plan of non-medicated delivery. I love this little guy more every day.
I am mostly a lurker, but I really appreciated everyone's birth stories and other advice they posted. It was really helpful as a FTM get ready for labor and now motherhood.
