What a great day to come, PZ jnr2!! Congratulations!!! No park birth then I take it.

You never know, by "waterbirth" she could have mean "public pool birth"

Congratulations PZ and family on your newest addition.
Guess you won't have to worry about your waters breaking in public!
Great birth date too!!!

[PumpkinZulu]

Thanks so much guys. On cloud 9, minus some ouchy after pains.

I pushed for an hour and 40 minutes with Isla...this time second stage was a cruisy 8 minutes. I had a LOT of back pain, had the water injections (most painful thing I've felt in my life!! Only time I yelled!) and got almost instant relief in my back. My body was able to de-tense and let go more after that, and my waters broke pretty much straight after the shots. Two overwhelming urges to push and she was out, floating around Once again, no tears or grazes. Yay! Not too much blessing after either, wast sick feeling like with Isla. I even had a surprisingly delicious placenta smoothy after, just for my own peace of mind. Berries, yogurt and placenta. Surprisingly tasty

[sangie]

Huge congrats PZ and welcome to the big wide world Amelie!

[Jaycee]

Aww that's fabulous news!! And what a birth date!!

[PumpkinZulu]

Did your mum and Isla watch you birth????

No, they came in a few times in the beginning but Isla was pretty disinterested. When I was pushing I started to make more noise, and mum said Isla was saying 'Mumma!' And gesturing to the bedroom door every time I made a noise Then she came in with mum a few minutes after Amey was born to meet. So relaxed and uncomplicated. I seriously can't believe I just had a baby in my loungeroom!

[TeniBear]

Crying now. Just so you know
