rodeogirl's journey to being self-sufficient

[rodeogirl]

born 12:41 pm, 6lb 13oz, 18in
The midwife checked me around 12:20 and I was a 6. Every one thought that we had an hour, The attending ob went over to the clinic to do paper work and the midwife was heading home to get lunch. From the time my water broke to the time she was born was less then 30 min. They where also impressed by how well I pushed considering my epidural had me almost completely numb from the waist down.

Ya we did. Because I had wasn't able to breastfeed my son we are supplementing with some formula. So I'll breastfeed her first and give her some formula if she is still hungry. Hopefully once my milk finally comes in it will be easier.
