Wow - what an amazing day.
We are exhausted and at the same time full of energy for our new little man.
Reece was born today, Tuesday Febraury 26th at 6:19 p.m. Reece weighed 8 pounds 13 ounces and is 21.5 inches long.
He arrived in 1 hour and 59 minutes after I started pushing. That was a lot longer than I had anticipated. We made some progress very quickly this afternoon - and our doctor was not at the hospital so we had to slow down some of the pushes and just wait. He did a great job throughout the whole time and scored a 9 on his apgar scores. Overall, my labor experience was great - I finally got an epidural and I realized how long this process could take. I did have them turn it down for awhile - to find out that it wore off during the pushing process - that anesthiologist was a god-send and topped me off so I could still feel some of my legs but not the pain.
Anyways... here are the part you have been waiting to see...
Monty's first diaper- well Reece's first diaper
