Abram Bennett

Well it's official, I have made it into the momma club! Abram Bennett was born Tues. at 5:13 p.m. He weighed 7 lbs even and was 20in. long. Delivery went pretty smoothly. If I had to chose which one to do over 1) carrying a baby for 9 months or 2) deliver a baby again....I would chose to deliver again. I ended up being able to get an epidural and got it very early, lol actually I hadn't even dialated anymore than a 3. For those who may not know, I went into early labor about 4 weeks ago and they had to stop it. Spent 2 days in hospital, dialated to 3 cm, and spent a week on moderate bed rest. He is absolutely perfect and could not have asked for anything better !!!:)

He got a clean bill of health and we are ready to go home. We are waiting for him to be circumcised. This is something I do not want to be around for. I already have shed a few tears for fear that Im doing something wrong or that I am hurting him. Lol we are also having a few issues with feeding. Last night went very well and today seemed to be great also. Hopefully, we are geting the hang of it and it wont be to bad. So far, I might say this has been the hardest part of the entire experience. This somehow does not come with the same opinions and stories as childbirth did. Everyone (mostly nurses) have each told me something different to do...not a single nurse has given the same advice. Oh well, from what I have heard it is all trial and error and there is always a back up. Here are few picture...We will post some more when we take them.
