So I couldn't figure out how to bump my post up to show our pics so I am going to post it all over again...sorry!
I am so excited to announce that we have a baby boy!! We never thought in a million years it was a boy!
So if you remember my MW came over on Friday morning to get things started b/c of my cholestasis. So my labor plugged and chugged slowly but surely until 2:45 on suday morning 1/28 when he was born! 39 hrs later...phew! He was born in the water into his daddy's hands.
It was the most spiritual, and incredibly exhilerating experience of my life and I wouldn't have wished for anything to go differently. I learned so much about myself, and my husband and I bonded like never before. It was incredible! THanks for all the well wishes from last week it was great to know that I had wonderful women thinking about me!
Birth story to come with pics and a name!! so far he's baby boy!
Here are some pics of labor and after! Enjoy! Oh and his name is Levi Joseph
(i had an IV (which is not the norm at a homebirth) after about 37 hrs of labor, I was a little dehydrated but it did the trick!)
