Well I've had Grace. She was born on Friday the 13th, haha! I got to the hospital at 11 on Thursday night and she was born at 7:56am Friday morning. I had wanted to have a natural birth but I got an epidural at about 5:30am, which I am soooo glad about because I tore and if I hadn't have had the epi then I would have needed a local anaesthetic for the stitches to be put in. As it was I could feel them going in, but not feel much pain, cos it had started to wear off... but there's no way I wanted an injection anywhere near my vagina. Jesus, it's bad enough that I had my legs in stirrups with a strange man between them.
Anyway :p she was 7 pounds, 10 ounces and 51cm long. :)

Thanks everyone :)
MysticWitch- yes, it was a smooth delivery. I pushed for 3 contractions and she was out. I would like to think that I could have gone without the epidural, but I hadn't gone to the antenatal classes because my bf was working. It wasn't so much the pain that bothered me, but the pressure when she moved into the birth canal, I just felt like I was going to rip open straight away & I had no idea that it was going to feel like that, which is probably cos I couldn't help pushing, I had the urge to push as soon as I felt that pressure and I told the doctor... I was like, I can't not push what do I do? and she just offered me the epidural. I went through probably 5 contractions like that, but it scared me too much (the feeling like I was going to rip open) and so I got the epi. Like I said though, I guess it was a good thing because of the stitches. It just would have been nice to go natural...

Congrats! She's a pretty baby! Love the name too :)

My mother had to get stitches down there with my brother. It turned out his shoulders were wide--wider than what they expected-- and they had trouble getting him out. They had to cut her to allow the skin to stretch more!
I remember she had trouble peeing after...it was painful on the stitches.
Doesn't sound fun.
