Wow, congratulations (another Nov05 DDCer stalking you...)

Sorry about the afterpains, but they will get easier. Try to rest, OK?

My mom has been on cloud nine over the whole thing. I think she called everyone she knew to tell them that she got to catch the baby. My dh was a little upset he didn't get the honor...he'd stepped out of the room momentarily to umm, take care of some poop and while he was out, the head was born.

I'm starting to feel better. Still very tired and looks like this little fellow is going to follow his siblings' lead and have some tummy trouble (lots of crying) as the milk comes in. I think it may be daddy's turn to be up most of the night.

I've got a pic uploading...I'll link it in my original post in a moment.

Christa
