Welcome Orri Kennedy! We LOVE you!
Orri, was born February 6th 2012 at 1:47 pm.
The labor was so intense, it slowly began around 2:30am and really amped up around 9am, by 10am I was MOOOOOOOOING like a cow to get through the contractions, by 11am we were heading out the door on our way to the birth center. After a nearly 12 hour trial of labor (I was planning a VBA2C) Orri was born via C-section (there were decels that indicated a possible cord compression), and you know I wouldn't mess around with that (and the cord was wrapped around his neck!), and I was only at 4 cm's with the contractions coming one after the other. It was so wild! He cried as soon as he emerged from me, he was SO alert, so beautiful...he was put right onto my chest and hasn't really ever left. Which is as it should be. (more details of Orri's birth to come)
It's time I start writing again...because it still brings me healing and it forces me to document my current parenting journey.
