so i have been busy this last week (what else is new) but I want to share something.
one of my best freinds B had her baby this week, and she had almost the same labor that i did, epidural wore off, ended in a c section after 24 hours..... anyways. so now she has this beautiful baby boy. but while i was at the hospital watching her breath through the pain i realized how very tribal giving birth can be. the people you trust are there, sometimes your parents, certainly your SO your friends if theya re part of your chosen tribe. and that frankly there is no man out there who actually can understand what it is like to try to push a kid out at 3 am and why you have chosen to surround yourself with the strength of your tribe. its pretty awesome i think. i wonder if now the baby will some how through osmosis or something develope trait of mine or T's that were wandering around hism other's hosptial room.
anyways. that is all for today. i am not ready to discuss the newest developments of annika sooo i will talk later when i am ready.

My epidural never kicked in! They inserted it twice! I gave birth to a 10lb 8oz pound baby feeling every little bit of it! They were setting up for emergency C-section but the Dr. used suction and pulled him out. I had a crappy Dr. for that birth!
