Benson's Arrival (A story told through pictures)


 I Have been wanting to Blog about Benson’s birth for a while now it’s been  very challenging for me to get everything want to say into a short enough version for my blog, so bear with me if that’s something you want to read about.
However, here is something that some people may think is even better, this is the story in picture form. Enjoy!
Starting Labor

Several hours into the process

Mom patiently waiting


Ben wrapped in a blanket because apparently everyone thought
 the room was FREEZING except for me of course. ;) 

Me experiencing a contraction.
YES it still hurts even with an epidural

By the way i have a rag in my mouth because
 the only thing I wanted to do was bite something so they gave
 me a damp washcloth to suck on and bite as hard as I wanted.


Ben  cutting the umbilical cord :D

  2. He is so perfect! So glad he's here in your family. I'm so happy for you. Those first few months of motherhood (and the newness of each baby) are so precious.
