I had my baby boy!!

Dr. Mom,

I finally went into labor late Monday night February 2nd at ten pm. My doula came over around 12 as things were picking up a bit. We went to the birthing center the next morning around 9am. I gave birth at 5pm Tuesday evening. It was an eighteen hour labor and pretty tough! Im proud of myself though that I did it naturally without pain meds, etc. I used hypnobirthing, meditation and deep breathing to get me through. Im not sure I could have done it without my Doula and midwife. They were so AWESOME! So proud I went into labor on my own naturally without being induced. all the walking paid off. Baby boy was seven pounds six ounces. Im trying my hardest to breastfeed him but my milk is slowly coming in! Any tips! I think that's so cool that your daugher and law was due at the same time as me! Tweet
