Born Yesterday!

7.5 lbs 21 inches



After 3 sleepless nights
nearly 48 hours of fairly intense but irregular contractions
13 hours of active labour at the hospital (successfully fighting off the only drug happy midwife in the whole damn hospital and a pissy epidural/oxytocin pushing obstetrician).
Our son arrived! With his tiger yowl and a perfect 10 apgar.
And now we're all at home.

It kind of sucked but it was kinda cool too, because in the end i felt so determined and powerful. I'll write the whole birth story some time when i'm ready.
It's great to be at home.
