UPDATE ~ birth story !!!

Earlier today I posted a question asking should I go to l&d bc I wasn't sure if I was having real contractions or not. Well I definitely was and they were the mins apart at five am and I was still two cm. By seven am I was 5cm and starting to feel the pain. By 7/8am I was in a ton of pain and for good reason I was 7cm and so I got my epidural. I napped a tad and was 10cm and ready to push at 1030am. After pushing on and off for awhile I finally gave birth to a handsome baby boy at 11:38 he made his grand entrance. He weighs 7lbs 14oz at nearly 22inches long! I didn't tear and I'm feeling great! Just a tad sore but that's more from sitting too long and he's perfect. My little Sage Everett Foreman!! My colostrum finally came and he's been feeding pretty great for a first timer. I'm beyond happy and inlove!!!
