I first want to thank all the members for sharing their words of wisdom. I have been lurking on this site since last year when two of my friends were pregnant at the same time.<br><br>
Can't write too much, since Aidan is a very high-needs baby. My boobs hurt, (as do other parts). : ) <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/lol.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="lol"><br><br>
Needless to say, after 44 hours of back labor plus 2 1/2 hours of pushing, I feel like I got hit by a truck. Aidan weighed 8 lbs 13 oz and measured 19 3/4 inches. I can't believe the overwhelming mix of emotions.<br><br>
Now the real hard part begins....

Congratulations and welcome to another Aidan. My first labor was a lot like yours sounds - long and hard. Your body will recover and Aidan will start to adjust to this big new world he is in now.

Congrats and welcome to Aiden!<br><br>
(I think I had his twin...41 hours of labor and 3 hours of pushing! I feel you girl, hang in there!)
