Our Noah decided to arrive exactly 2 weeks early on October 28th; which I found a bit funny considering our son Carter had came 2 weeks late. This pregnancy had been so different and Noah was such a mover I just felt as if he couldn't wait to come out and see the world and boy was I right.
Contractions had begun early in the morning around 1am as I kept waking up as I was contracting, but didn't think much about it considering I'd been having contractions and just figured they were more braxton hicks contractions, but by mid morning 10am or so I began to think they weren't just braxton hicks contractions and after lunch around 12pm I started to time distance between the contractions and soon realized they were getting closer together.
By 8 that evening my contractions had reached the point where I was ready to get in the pool. Awe, the warm water felt so good, but then, oh my baby Noah was on his way!
I did it! I caught Noah all by myself! I couldn't believe I actually did it! I caught him and brought him up to my chest! My sweet Noah born at 8:21pm.
It was a peaceful delivery for Noah and I.
Weighing 7lbs. 5oz. and Measuring 19"
My midwife Gail Uptain and her assistant Jackie Lopez were wonderful as they helped give me the home birth that I desired.
And here is my amazing husband with our baby boy, Noah.
