My baby boy is here!

Hi everyone! im proud to say that my baby boy is finally here! he was born 6.9oz 19 inches long.
The labor was 8 hrs im guessing pretty quick for a first baby...everything progressed very quickly and i was only able to get the epidural at the end. The contractions were by far the worst and of course it was back labor.
My baby was born jan 13th at 8:57am and i have not had a chance to write...hes up every hr at night and sleeps like an angel in the day! so im pretty much always on 45 min of sleep. Its a lot harder than i thought and i knew it would be hard. G-d bless all the mothers! i looks at mothers in a whole knew way!!!!
