Contractions started to become 4 minutes apart by 6pm, got to the hospital by 8 pm and was 4 cm, water broke at 10:25pm and I was 10 cm, no time for an epidural and successfully had a vbac at 10:57pm. Crazy fast!!<br /> Mommy life is great, my 2.5 year old visited yesterday and seems to like his baby brother, looking forward to going home today to celebrate Easter with family. However my lady parts feel they will never be the same, feeling very sore. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/april-2014-arrivals#post-1557434 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 19:05:58 +0000 jill_a55 1557434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LovelyPlum: thank you! The nurse was shocked by that, she was gearing me up for like 1.5 hours and my doctor hadn't even been told to come over yet! They made me stop trying which was torture! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/april-2014-arrivals#post-1557408 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 18:52:43 +0000 Dandelion 1557408@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LovelyPlum: M was so small his outfit didn't fit lol. He just wore a blue onesie lol. But DS is adjusting really well to sharing his mom. It's nice that he's independent enough that he doesn't need me for everything. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/april-2014-arrivals#post-1557346 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 18:24:29 +0000 LovelyPlum 1557346@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jill_a55: so glad that you're doing well! 15 minutes of pushing sounds amazing!</p> <p>@Dandelion: how's DS handling the transition to being a big brother? And did I remember correctly that he picked the coming home outfit (Batman, maybe)? How did that go? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/april-2014-arrivals#post-1555342 Tue, 08 Apr 2014 23:47:59 +0000 jill_a55 1555342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Name or initial (if you want to share): Cruz<br /> Sex: boy! :boy:<br /> Due date: 4/7<br /> Birth date: 3/31<br /> Length: 21 inches<br /> Weight: 8 lbs 5 oz<br /> Birth story?: my water broke at home with no contractions (15 minutes before the walking dead finale started!) went to the hospital and started pitocin after 5 hours of being there. 20 hours of labor and thankfully only 15 minutes of pushing!<br /> How's mommy life so far?: Great!
