Great birth story, really enjoyed reading it

The girl in the bed next to me had a baby with a sixth finger exactly as you described. It's supposed to be very lucky

 

[lulu]

What a great story, I was laughing and crying!

Unfortunately it brings back memories of labour and my labour with jack was a horrible and long one, so now Im worrying even more

He is gorgeous - congratulations!!!

 

[bumpmakes3]

Gorgeous story and gorgeous little boy hun. Well done you Now let the fun begin

 

[louxlouxbellex]

CONGRATULATIONS hun, he's beautiful!

 

[debecca]

Excellent birth story - you inspired me to write one of my own!

Think you're right about the epidural. I might have had one myself if a) it had been available in the midwife unit or b) I hadn't been int he pool - which definitely helps with the pain.

Your little boy is gorgeous, extra finger and all

WELL DONE YOU!

Congratulations on the birth of your little boy. It's surprising the amount you remember isn't it - keep this record somewhere so you can read it again in years to come.

I'm glad you managed to push him out yourself. It seems so many people (including me) end up with a forceps delivery after a long labour and epidural through sheer exhastion (although my boy's shoulders got stuck as well). I couldn't feel my legs, let alone push!

Get some rest, I think you deserve it
