Our daughter Edie was born Monday at 5:10am. It was a wonderful, fast birth - she was ready to get here!! We were going to have to try castor oil that morning but no need. She arrived 15 minutes after I got in the waterbirth tub 
and thank god the doula was here to help catch her because the midwife wasn't even here yet, haha! I'd only had some crampy labor before that. I had no tearing at all but did lose a decent amount of blood but am taking it easy and feeling better. It was *totally worth* going more than two weeks overdue for a labor and birth like that!! 
I feel very blessed. Rose and I are just falling in love with her and Edie is a GREAT nurser!
