Natalia Michaela arrive on Friday!
Well, the bloody show that started Thursday morning was the last sign. My water broke Thursday night and my baby girl was born Friday (March 7) morning after 1 push. Although I had a much longer labour than I anticipated, at least she was easy to push out. No tears and I am recovering fairly well. Kinda swollen, as I was before I had her. My belly still looks quite pregnant, I don't recall how long this lasts for.
Nursing is going well, although I've totally let her slack on her latch and I've blistered both nipples. So have that toes curling when she first latches on.
She loves to sleep with DH and I, she's grunting in the bassinett right now. I'm sure if I move her to my bed she'd sleep like a log.
