My own was 60 hours, so I know that feeling of fatigue quite well... You have a beautiful little family!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5290052487699651767.post-50766217998263124392010-05-30T20:37:53.678-03:002010-05-30T20:37:53.678-03:00Very interesting, Sherrie.

I had an epidural with my second and, though it didn't take 20 minutes, the anesthetist got annoyed because I was having trouble keeping 100% still. Pfft! They should have anesthetists who are mothers to do those. Then we might get a little pity.<br /><br />I hear that most women are surprised at the amount of vaginal fluid. I had none at all when my kids were born. Weird, eh? Fortunately they were healthy.Bobbiannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13738491322806509033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5290052487699651767.post-63631631265627271162010-05-30T20:34:28.326-03:002010-05-30T20:34:28.326-03:00I loved every word.

I wondered how everything went. It's been 25 years since my last and I hope I remember it when I'm older as well as I do now. I had both my births 100% natural. From first contraction to the birth for my first = 5 hours and my second was less than 4. I was made to have babies.Vickie LeBlanchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14127867994907548280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5290052487699651767.post-2955459194689761332010-05-29T13:20:24.602-03:002010-05-29T13:20:24.602-03:00Thanks so much, Teresa!

I wanted to record all of the details for when I'm old and will have forgotten them. :) Since I get my Blog2Print books done every now and then, I thought that this was the perfect place to record every detail, if only for myself. :)Sherriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18101301185473329250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5290052487699651767.post-62632111499849117272010-05-28T22:30:12.304-03:002010-05-28T22:30:12.304-03:00Sherrie, what a beautiful and detailed story of Th...Sherrie, what a beautiful and detailed story of Thomas' birth!! Thank you for sharing it with us! <br /><br />The epidural never fully took on both my birthings, and with kid #1, I had what I think were called "riding contractions" where before one contraction subsided another would start so I had no break from the pain. It's a wonder I ever agreed to a second. LOL!<br /><br />I'm so glad everything turned out wonderfully even if you couldn't have the vaginal birth. Hugs!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
