Thank you for all of your comments and thank you so much Carla for updating for me!

I am very happy with my L&D for the most part. I got a vaginal birth and Camden came on his own which are both great! I had some issues throughout, mostly with the nurses and staff at the hospital. Even my doctor was mad with how things went. I'll write all about it in my birth story but let's just say i was confined to the bed the whole time which made things very painful for me.

We got home late Tuesday. Everything is going very well. Breastfeeding was really hard at first. Camden wasn't latching and the nurses and lactation consultant would spend forever trying to get him to. It was exhausting. They wanted us to stay there for an extra day but we decided to go home. Well, an hour before leaving the hospital I decided to try to nurse him on my own in a different position than everyone else had been trying and he latched within 2 minutes! Now it's no problem getting him latch.. just very painful at times! He's also a very good sleeper. The first night home we got 6 hours of sleep. We had to actually wake him up to eat. Last night I got 4-5 hours. Jimmy is SO amazing with him! He's been taking care of Camden just as much as i have and is such a great help

Not sure what else there is to say except Camden is amazing and we're just enjoying all our time with him I'll write my birth story hopefully sometime later today. Here are some pics!

I too was thinking wow, you didn't even look like you had just delivered a baby, you looked great!
Camden is gorgeous! You and jimmy both look so proud and happy! I am so happy that you finally have your little boy there with you!
I'm sorry labor was so painful for you, but I can't wait to read the birth story!
Again, huge congrats!
