I had him yesterday at 6;53 pm

9 lbs 2 oz
labor started yesterday at 11;30 after I fell holding 18 mo old Dd ( wonder if falling caused the labor) I wasnt sure for awhile if it was really labor but by 4 I was defintaly sure, sitting in the car during rush hour at xmas time sucked. When they checked me at hospital I was allready ay 10 w/ a buldging bag I was so excited I was thinking baby would be here any min,,,,,, WRONG.... baby was still high up so I had back labor because baby was posterior so I tried lots of positions and finally my water broke and out came the head a couple pushes later the baby was out baby slid out no problem- (history of shoulder dystocia) nurses were reall good about all my specail requests and even leaving w/ baby a couple hours after birth, I had to sign the baby out AMA though since it was a strep B baby and I refused antibiotics. Baby is healthy though and doing well, but has some latch issues. Oh and no rips tears or anything.

This labor was much easier than my inductions, contrax was so much easier to deal w/

I'll post pics later

Congratulations! That's the same exact size as my little guy was...he too was high and posterior so I had back labor also, and he also came out quickly once he turned. I'm glad you're feeling so well.
