how did you feel after the birth

[chocolatecatty]

I felt unreal. No drugs or stiches and as a result my hormones kicked in big time! I was awake for hours afterwards, despite an 11.56pm delivery after a 4am start the same day. I was so proud (in a good way) I birthed Caty the way I did and was so happy cos my sister and husband were equally proud of me and I love them so much so it was just ALL GOOD!

Next day my butt muscles were sore, and my calves, musta been using them during labour accidentally, and when I walked it felt like my gut was going to spill out, but I guess that's normal!
