We had our baby!A boy,born at home in the water,after just under 7 hrs. labor.(not counting the last month of pre-labor!!!)With the kids watching(and taking pictures).He's a beautiful,perfect 9 lbs,20 in. He actually has hair!Our first!blonde,of course,but hair!Great nurser,and very mellow!He loves to look and study faces,and perks to dh's voice-smiles big every time,and ds,who he looks for and finds every time he hears his voice too.He was born on the 30 at 9:34 pm.He had his first real poop last evening.We're Ec'ing,but have yet to catch a single pee or poop.I had a dear freind make a placenta smoothie asap for me,so we did not get a print or measurements,but the smoothie has been a miracle!I have NEVER felt so good post-partum!I'm up and independant-I'm usually very weak...I'm almost done bleeding!Not even 3 days pp!!!!!AWESOME!!!!!
So far he's the only nurser-Dd2 has no interest,and Dd1 keeps looking for milk to try...Having a cozy babymoon,and will post birth story later.
After waiting 41w 4 days,my heart goes out to the "still here" mamma's!I'm thinking of you,with support more than anticipation!

Congratulations mama! Glad to hear you are doing so well.

Welcome to the world little one! 
: that I'm done bleeding, none at all today!
Be sure to cut off all the membranes and cord of course.I made a fresh batch with some frozen placenta and it blended very smoothly.I think it is more fiberous than meaty,we just assume meaty with the blood...
