Well, for those of you wondering, mommy's little monster is here, and that's what's kept me away. His coming was relatively easy, and for that I'm thankful. I got induced at about noon on the 20th, after my OB decided I was having enough contractions to make it worthwhile. She also said something about the baby's heartbeat, but the little bastard turned out fine. I've never watched so much Law & Order in my whole life... I tried going au naturale, but it got to be too much for me in the end, and I opted for the epidural. It was the single strangest sensation I've ever had in my whole life. My lower left side was completely numb, but the right half was only halfway there, so I could still feel the contractions coming on, and I could flop my leg around a little. Munchkin slid right on out, too; I hear "push push push push oh look I can see the top of his head" straight to "push push push push hey Erin look up here he is." His grand entrance was made at 11:45 pm, with 15 minutes to spare to still make it on my sister's birthday. Bitch better be happy, that's the single most expensive birthday present I'm EVER gonna get for her.
Parenthood is something my husband and I are both getting used to. It's definitely a huge upheval. Things have been going well so far, and I hope I'll be able to learn how to juggle work and family life well. I don't want to go back to work at all, but I can't afford to stay home longer than a month, so I'll have to go back one way or the other. I think I'll be one of those sappy bitches that sniffles and sheds a few tears the first day I leave him with the daycare lady.
