I'm so sorry it has taken me almost 7 weeks to write about the birth of our little boy Sawyer Lane. Life has been very hectic ever since this sweet boy was born, so this is really the first time I've had a chance to sit down and blog.
Sawyer was born on May 8th at 8:53am. My water broke the night before at about 10:15 or so, and right away my contractions were at 2 minutes apart, with about 30 seconds of rest time in between. I had intended on going in to this labor with the vision of an all-natural birth. You know; no patocin, no epidural, just me and those ever so wonderful contractions. Well, after about 6 hours of intense contractions and not being able to move from a laying down position and no progression, I opted out for the epidural. Once the epidural was in effect, it seemed like no time and the little guy was here! He is absolutely perfect, even more wonderful than we ever imagined he could be! Josh and I are so in love with this boy, and our love for him grows more every single day.
