@skiingstark congrats, he is precious!! And like PP said, don't call yourself weak back labor suuuuuuuucks! I'm sure it was long forgotten once you held your little dude though!
@fourPsinapod eeeeppppp congrats!!! Might I also mention, you're a complete boss for only needing ONE push!! Can't wait to see LO.
Yeah, it was weak moment during the back labor pains. I really love the epidural.
Also as a side note, just want to let people know if they are thinking of epidural, I had no back pain after the epidural like some people say can happen. Also did not seem to affect Marcus, he started crying right away and started breast feeding right away.
Thanks everyone!!! Ps the one push was because I was 10cm for 4 hours waiting to push!! My doctor had two emergency surgeries before me and she figured I could labor down for a little. Well, at one point considering my epi totally wore off and I was slowly expiring, H called my nurse and she came in to do some pushes to help feel better (she obviously didn't expect what happened next). She had me stop mid practice push and she called for a "catcher" and three people ran in my room one push and she was here! I was not a happy camper that they made me wait so dang long but I guess it all worked out in the end lol.
Congratulations @HeatSparks!! Your twins are beautiful!! I'm so glad to hear you are all okay now and were able to go home together. I hope everything continues to go well. They are so cute and I love the names you chose. Hope you can manage to get some rest too! Congrats again!
@fourPsinapod Dude, I'd be PISSED. 4 hours? They are lucky you waited. Meanwhile, your LO is GORGEOUS! Congratulations!
@HeatSparks Omg those girls and their strawberry feet! I'm sorry there was dome concern after the birth but I'm so glad you are all home safe now. Yay babies!!
@fourPsinapod Congratulations, although four hours waiting to push sounds like it would be agony. Sounds like you rocked it though and your LO is adorable; I cannot believe all that hair on that sweet little head!
@HeatSparks Congrats on the twins, it's wonderful they were able to be released at the same time and it's really good to hear the three of you are doing well. The PJs in your last photo are darling on them by the way
@purplewriter Good luck for an incident free delivery!
