Vaginal birth after a 36hr labour.
As soon as my little guy was placed on my chest, which was seconds after I pushed him out, I was in disbeleif. I couldnt beleive that this little cutie had been inside me for nearly 10 months!!!!
I instantly fell in love with the little guy... who I held for a couple of hours and fed within the first 20 mins. I was amazed. Amazed at the little human being on my chest. Amazed at my body, for being able to do what I knew it could but was told by so many others it couldnt!
I was also so proud of myself! I had no idea that I was so strong. I thought I had a low pain tolerance, and that I just would not be able to sustain myself throughout a 6 hour labour..... well I porved myself wrong.
Only 5-10 sucks on the gas, which didnt really do much, and a 36 odd hr labour, no sleep for at least 46 hours. I didnt get a full on bout of the 3rd day blues.. I did and still do get slightly teary every now and then for a min or 2... but everytime I see this little guy smile, giggle, or learn something new, I fall completely in love all over again.
I am at the point where I can't wait to do it all over again... even after 2 seperate tears that I am still healing from!
