Isn't it interesting how we all cope so differently! And how each baby's birth is so different! I can't wait to do it again, and see what the next one will be like.

I really enjoyed the first stage of labour, yes it hurt, but geez it's good hurt! What a wonderful exprience it was, I've never felt better about myself, or more in tune with myself, I had such control. I don't really remember going through transition. The second stage wasn't terrible, but it did hurt more than the first. But that was because Nicholas was posterior, I'm sure. Most of the pain was in my back. But I loved the second stage because that was when I birthed my baby and got to meet him!
