Great story! Glad to hear it went well.. I only have one child, but had a great birthing experience.. I always said I had the perfect hips for giving birth. I attribute it to great doctors/hospital/nurses and also having a baby who was anxious to get out... I hope my second is as good (who am I kidding though?)

That was great. I hope if I have another it will go that smoothly!

Cool story. Rebecca was 26 hours and after all of that...emergency C-section. The worst part...4 days in the hospital with horrible nurses. Glad all is well and your new one is sleeping so well.

Cool birth story! I want to know more about that "sleep mode" thing, LOL! Is it like HypnoBirthing? I've read that book. I hope that our second childbirth experience will go as smoothly as Lucas's did! Congrats again to you guys!

Wow you are lucky! LittleJuJu was 6 hours, no pain meds and a cinch...BabyJuJu was 18 hours and AWFUL. Second does not always mean easier!

Well that is great. Glad it was better than the first time around. My first time was very fast (6 hours start to finish) So I hope if we have another it will be the same. But you never know.

I'm glad all things went well for you and the delivery. Thanks for sharing Samantha's birth story. Do you find yourself a little sad that this is the last baby? I am feeling that way right now. I look at my new baby daughter and feel sad because I don't want her to grow up. (This too, will be our last child.)

Sounds like all went well. I'm so glad. Do you think second labors are easier because you know what to expect?
