I just wanted to thank everyone that gave me advice during my pregnancy. I wanted to give you all an update.
My water broke around 11:30am on May 31st and we met our son, Connor Riley at 8:42 that evening, he was 7lbs and 14oz and 20.75" long, healthy and absolutely beautiful.
If I am to give anything back I would say to exercise during your pregnacy ( if you are not high risk) and eat well. My labor was only 9 hrs long and I pushed for only 12 minutes. I believe that my activity and diet had much to do with it.
This was my first child and I had the epidural at 3cm, I progressed to 10 cm in only 5 hrs. It actually sped up my labor since I was so relaxed. Highly recommend it, the only drawback was I had numbness in my legs for an additional 9 hrs, but well worth it.
Also on a side note May 31st was the blue moon (two full moons in one month), my baby came once in a blue moon!!!
