Q: I'm Back Ladys!!!

I had my little girl on January 11th and she was 7lbs and 8oz and 18 inches. She looks just like her daddy. My blood pressure was high so they went ahead and broke my water at 7:15pm and 30mins later I was already pushing. It went really fast and it was great. I never thought it would be that easy. I had her at 9:25pm. It was wonderful and they were shocked it was so fast because of it being my first time. Now my little one is fixen to be 2 months and she weights 10lbs and 15oz as of today. I'm so proud!! Heather

Yes I had a epi. I wanted to wait but they told me I did not have time to wait if I wanted one. When he gave me the epi. he said well that was easy and I dont think he put it in right because I could still feel alot. Contractions, pressure everything. I did not tear either and I was very happy about that.

That's awesome on the tearing issue!! I had a small tear...nothing big. I only needed one stitch.

Some people have a hard time recognizing pain from severe pressure. I've heard many people complain about the pain of a c-section, but it's more forcefull pressure, than pain.

Reguardless, that sh't huuurts!! lmao!!!!

I wanna see some pics!!

.If you have a digital camera with the cord to hook it up to the computer you can do it that way too.

did your computer come with a "usb" cable? It plugs into your comp & your camera. All you gotta d ois plug it in, and which ever program your computer uses, it will let your organize the pics from there.

If not, then you can take your chip to .walgreens, and have them transfer it to a cd. Then you can upload them from there!
