well after a few days of prodromal labor, then the water breaking and another day of mild contractions, my son was FINALLY born on 9/9 at 1:55am. the hard labor part was only 5 hours long but it was MUCH harder than my first son's birth which was 12 hours.
he's 6lbs 10oz. and super healthy and nursing like a pro already! i'm doing very well also and getting as much rest as i can. i gave birth at home so we are just here and resting and enjoying each other.
just wanted to share our happy news!

congratulations! Wow you had your baby at home? That is amazing!!! A friend of mine is a midwife and she absolutely loves it. No drugs, you are a champ!
though w/my bad luck w/drugs I think I am going to stay away from as much as possible.
