I had a 2nd degree tear but it feels fine. The epidural blocked all pain I had with labor and delivery and it was amazing! I didn’t think I wanted one but ended up opting for it.

After delivery, Maxwell had swallowed a bunch of fluid and had to wear a c-pap machine for 15 min until breathing was clear. He was 9 pounds!

He started breast feeding right away but then I started to feel faint. Blood pressure dropped to 80/56 and I was bleeding out some. I had clots as well. They fixed that and then got us to a room where not even 2 hours later I had a seizure due to low blood pressure and lack of food. Once I ate, got fluids and took a nap, all was back to normal. 100% worth it. He’s the best.
