May 2nd it wasn't!
I appologize for posting so late but things have been a little crazy around here!
Our baby boy was born April 8th at 5:08pm weighting 6lb 5oz and measuring 19 inches. His name is Benjamin Simon.
Here is a picture!
My water broke at 5:10 am April 8th, more than 3 weeks before my EDD. So, a word of advice, ladies, have your hospital bag packed and ready by 36 weeks.
My labor was great and very impowering: at first they wanted to induce me because I had no contractions even though my water broke and that could cause infection. I refused induction, feeling that my body will do me right and I will start contracting on my own! I did and was 3.5 cm dialated less than 3 hours later. At this point I got epidural and we had our son a few of hours later!
I really enjoyed my L&D experience and would do it again in a heartbeat! The recovery sucked of course, but it was well worth it!![]()
