It's a boy!

Fri Aug 14, 2009, 7:09 PM
Well, it was all over last Wednesday. I went in the night before to get an induction because my doctor was going to be out of town and I didn't trust the other one on duty. >.> We hadn't heard good things about him. I was so far along already, I could've gone into labor while he was gone. As it turns out, my water broke before they even gave me the medication. An hour or two later, they started me on it. In about five hours, I started to experience the worst pain of my life. All the worst pains in my life thus far made me just moan or weep lightly. This made me scream at the top of my lungs and cry hysterically. 2 shots in the hip and an epidural didn't help at all. You'd figure something administered straight to the spine would deaden everything inside as well as outside, but I suppose that's not the case. As it turns out, I was blessed not to have to go through more than 5 1/2 hours of labor, half an hour of which was the actual delivery. It could've been much, much worse. My husband, who had decided beforehand I wasn't to hold his hand during my labor pains so I wouldn't break it, repealed his earlier decicion and held my hand throughout the worst of it. He stayed by my side throughout the whole thing, and was an excellent coach. All the same, it was still hard not to yell at him when he insisted I breathe instead of scream.

Phoenix was born with his eyes open (so my husband says; I was too delerious with pain and at the wrong angle otherwise to tell) and not crying, but that changed when the doctor spanked him. When they wrapped him in a towel and tossed him on my stomach momantarily for my husband and I to see, I couldn't stop saying, "Oh my God!" Then they handed him to me one more time before taking him to the nursery, and he locked eyes with mine. He was so calm. Born on August 5, 2009, 5:29 PM, 6 lbs. 15.9 oz.

Now he's 9 days old, and already trying to do things like Mom and Dad. Dad and I are exhausted, but of course it's all worth it. We love our beautiful little boy, and he seems to have no health problems at all. It's terrifying trying to learn everything we need to be parents, but it's also kind of fun.

Thanks to everyone who supported me. I appreciate everything. :)
