Oh yeah I did it

The entity to be known as R

Oh yeah I did it, I did it, I really really did it. (imagine some rhythm behind that) I pushed a 9 lb 2 oz reluctant baby into the world through my vajayjay all by myself (kinda) but with an epidural on board due to unbelievable pain and the aforementioned reluctant child.

Yep. It's nuts. I feel like a first time mom all over again because I've never done this taking care of an infant 24/7 thing off the bat before. The triplets went to a NICU for a month. I feel like my life has taken an unimaginable turn and made a huge change and I have not even begun to comprehend it. I'm terrified and excited. I'm amazed and proud of myself.

Birthing story will follow when I have time and energy, but lets say that NOTHING goes as planned when having a baby. NOTHING. It's nuts.

Off to sleep or eat or something. Delirium.
