Day 9...it finally hits

Jan 28

I finally hit a wall today. It's the first day, that I've actually felt like I just had a baby. I've just been an emotional mess, and SO tired. My bottom's still kind of sore, and I was just dragging all day. I'm kind of glad I'm finally feeling like this though, it makes me feel more normal I guess.

My friend Holly came over tonight and brought her super cute little baby Oliver by to meet Martyn. Holly and I were in pregnancy class together and have become friends...I think it's pretty cool our little boys will get to be friends too. Oliver is 12 days older than Martyn, but Holly's original due date was the day before mine. I had thought it would have been pretty cool if we'd had our babies at the same time....now that the births are over with though, I don't think it would have been good if we were laboring at the birth center at the same time...my labor was just too lightening quick!

It was really cool to catch up, and kind of compare babies with Holly. Also, our friends Jill and Steve came over and brought us all dinner, chinese take out from Chaim (yum!) It was fun for us girls to all sit around and talk pregnancy and birth, while Eli and Steve chatted each other up. Jill is pregnant, and also using the same birth center that Holly and I used, so that was a fun point to talk about too.

Yay for natural child birth!
