boy is 5 days old

Well my little man arrived on wed the 21st. My water had broken at 7.15 on monday with contractions starting around 4am tuesday and was induced on wednesday.i managed to get to 3cm by myself but they had to induce me becuase i got stuck.
I ended up getting the epidural but im glad i did i was misrable and exausted.

Hes perfect,7.9pounds and i couldnt be happier.

But i can tell u one thing if u thought the labour is the hard part ur wrong the last 5days have been the biggest roller coaster ever and the "baby blues" are the wrost iv never cryed like this before. I miss sleep
