It's a boy!!!


Baby was born 3:54am June 15th
No name yet!



Resting between pushes in the pool

Active labor lasted only 6 hours, pushed for 30 with some good rests between pushes!
A super quick labor all in all for a fist baby! The midwife arrived at the house at 2:15am, assessed me at 6 cm dilated at 2:30 and got me in the pool by 3 am.




Holy crap - it's a baby!
