I had my little boy, (about 28 hours after my membrane sweep) March 16 at 4:32 pm he weighed 7 lbs 7 oz, and is 20 inches long. He has blond hair and blue eyes. A couple of hours after my membranes were swept, I started having contractions, went to the hospital around 5 am, but was not even 3 centimeters. The doctor came in at 8 am and broke my water. I tried to go all natural but at 7 cm I asked for the epidural. I pushed for an hour and an half until they had to use the vaccum, it was awful. Baby and I are doing great, he is a little jaundice so we have a bili blanket on him but other then that we are good. ( I was so jealous of Anne Maries four pushes) ↓

Congratulations!! I am very happy to hear you had a healthy baby boy.
I can already tell you that I am probably not going to go all natural like some of you brave ladies. I felt those contractions w/ my daughter and really am not looking forward to them again.
The gift you get afterwards is so wonderful though. Congrats again. ↑

Congrats!! I had my baby boy on the 11th. he was 7lbs. 7oz. also and he was also 20 inches long!! hehe!! But I only had to push like 3 or 4 times also!! But my son is jaundice also and he also had to be on the billiblanket. That sucks really bad. I felt so bad for him cause his back was always really sweaty. My son was on it for 5 days. And the highest his billiruben level was 15.7. I hope you guys are doing well!! And congrats agian!! ↑
