I had my baby March 31st at 2:25pm. I had my water break around 9:30am and went to the hospital about 11:30am I moved along quite quickly and only had to push for an hour before he came. I did not use any pain medication and had minimal tearing. I impressed the nurses and the doctors. I now have a healthy baby boy weighing at 8lbs 8ounces and he is 52cm long. This was my first baby.
