Now watch, Alexxa will post after I do.
Make sure you eat lots of protein and dairy, it will help. (I had 5 and am in negotiations for number 6) When your breasts get engorged, put a bag of frozen peas on them. Every time the baby eats, you need to eat, even just a small snack.
Congrats on the baby and make sure to sleep when she does or you will never get any.

Holy shit....I did it. LOL
I gave birth to a beautiful, healthy baby girl at 8:46 am, July 11th. Her name is Kembra and she is the most amazing thing in the whole world!! hehehe!! I am so giddy and unbelievably happy that it doesn't matter how little sleep I've managed to squeeze in the past few days.
So - the birth went really well. I don't remember all the specific details chronologically (I was WAYYY high on endorphins and adrenaline for a lot of it - kinda felt like I was tripping or something), but my contractions (10 mins apart) started around 4 am yesterday, giving me a total of 28 (!) hours of labor altogether. The contractions didn't come any closer together until about 6 pm, when my girl-friend showed up and took over for Jess. I was actually able to drive to the video store because the contractions weren't all that strong yet, so we rented some movies and I did a 'birth painting' for Kembra's birthday. ;D I took walks and showers to get things moving when they slowed. The midwife checked me to turn the baby's head a little and my water broke. Then the contractions got progressively more intense. At some point I got in the tub and started pushing, holding onto Jess...and well...about 30 minutes later, she finally arrived!
All in all, I am SOOOOO happy I did this at home. I don't know how women deliver in hospitals. NO IDEA. I think I needed to have the freedom to labor comfortably amongst all my belongings and friends. It was great. I feel so exhilarated - so extremely lucky!!
So, here are some pics!! I have to post quickly before Kembra wakes up to feed AGAIN. LOL

OMG WHAT AN ADORABLE LITTLE GIRL!!!!
Made me cry here....and want to have my little 'girl' now!!!!
Those first moments with your new baby are just far too much for words and to try and discribe them is almost an insult to the moment!!! Then to be in awe of the power and potential of your own body is overwhelming as well!!!

Thank you so much for posting those pictures! I love the two of you in the tub together. The picture of him cradling your face, especially, is so beautiful. And the baby is just heavenly!!!
I'm so glad you had such a great birth experience. I was thinking of you on & off all day, even starting to worry a little! Again, thanks for sharing the photos of such an amazing moment. Congratulations!

^^ She really did Alexxa.
More importantly, was the community interest in the whole experience. Our thoughts really were with you.
What a beautiful experience, you and your, now family, have an experience that so few will ever experience. How awe-inspiring where those pictures?
I'm sure you knew you two where together, but after a milestone you've shared like this, I can only imagine how the bond between you two has grown more profound
Congrats. You're in my thoughts...
And...Can I hold the little Girl? I wanna be Unca Mast.

Not like a dirty uncle either. Super protective. I'd beat up any 10th grader and below that made any kind of fun.
Or if someone asked her out? Dead.
And if she got a speeding ticket? I know a guy.
