baby boy
Matthew Stephen - born yesterday (March 24th) at 8:46 a.m. 8lb 2oz 19 inches Cutest ever -- pictures later. :)
The actual birth was great, Matthew's in great shape. Unfortunately the placenta didn't want to detach so I couldn't avoid the hospital, but I was really pleased with how the midwife handled everything and, while it was a tad traumatic to leave my hour-old son home with my mom while I went under general anesthesia, it's all worked out.
I need to type up the birth story before I forget it all, but it was amazing laboring and doing everything at home, with only supportive loving people around.
