Labor was as tough as everyone says. Mine was medically induced for 24 hours of hard labor w/out drugs as the doctor tried TWELVE times to get a spinal in me but all I got out of the deal was pain and bruising all up and down my spine. After 24 hours of labor, 8 cm of dialation, and tons of frustration, they realized that little Ezekiel was positioned in an inverted breach crazy position where at least his head was in the birth canal but there was no way I was going to be able to deliver him naturally. So, they did an emergency c-section with some local anethesia that still allowed me to feel my organs being plopped onto my chest. Then I heard E. cry. Then, I saw him being carried across the room in Marty's arms and every hurt flew away. I got to give him about 4 minutes of kisses, then he had to leave and I had to go to recovery for about 4 hours. It was so awesome to go upstairs and meet him and hold him though!!!
We are heading back in as they are going to board us while Ezekiel is still there..but here are a couple of pics.
Marty and Ezekiel yesterday; notice how yellow Ezekiel is.
