Just want to share with you the good news ~ my baby has arrived last May 11 at 5:49PM. Dominic is 7lbs 1 0z. I had a normal delivery. I wasn't feeling any intense contractions when I went for a routine OB check-up on Thursday. My OB found out that I am already 4cm dilated so she sent me to the hospital. They broke my water bag, introduced pitocin, and labored for 6 hours. In the end, all that mattered is seeing my baby healthy and smiling back at me
We are now home, crazy busy, and still high with the baby

hi ladies, THANKS again! Baby and I are doing great (well, save the sleepless, endless nights but again, it's worth it)
I kind of smiled when I read my post again, and indeed I made it sound so easy. But ladies, to be honest, I almost fainted a number of times during labor and intense contractions. I was crying for epidural (which was administered too late!). I felt all the pain/burning/sensation of labor. But as what other mothers would say, the pain went away the moment you have your baby in your arms (I really didn't mind the doctor doing the stitches, I had a natural tear. The doc also spent some time taking out the rest of my placenta ugh!)
Anyway, this is not to scare future moms, but rather just to let you know that the pain will be nothing compared to the moment you will hold your baby in your arms
I am 38; DH is 37. No children; PCO; 1 partially blocked tube; 2 failed IUI's; 3rd IUI cancelled; 1st IVF in May resulted in m/c; 2nd IVF in August, BFP on 9/6/05.
CONGRATULATIONS!! I have been off this board for a while and am so happy to finally log back in and see happy news!!! Wonderful news!! My best to you and your family!! Karen
39 years old. Divorced at 26, 2 teenage daughters from that marriage. 3 devastating miscarriages. B/G twins born 1/23/06 after IVF at 29 weeks, 4 days.
