Long Birth, well worth it to have Max!

*BOP warning – mom does experience discomfort and chooses and epidural, but a positive birth overall!*
I’ve enjoyed reading all the amazing birth stories on the Hypnobabies blog and have debated for a while whether or not I should post mine.  I praticed Hypnobabies for about 12 weeks prior to my guess date (10/11) which I [...]

Here is his very very long story – sorry, just kept writing.
This definitely needs a BOP at times, but thought I’d share anyway.  Also, occasionally a possible TMI.
