7 hrs of labor from water breaking to pushing him out. Unmedicated water birth w/ dads amazing support the whole time. He’s been a troublemaker the entire pregnancy & it hasn’t stopped yet: he pooped 5 times (including all over me with our first feeding & through his going home outfit) in the first 6 hours out. He latched on like a champ within 30 mins of birth & now is finally chilling & letting mom & dad rest. His older brother is obsessed already & it’s so heartwarming.
