The time had finally come to meet our son who we had waited, hoped and prayed so long for.
Here is the run down of his birth story. Thankfully, I was able to have the natural and unmedicated birth I had prayed for. While I did have pitocin to initiate contractions and get the labor process going, the Lord never gave me more "pain" than I could bear. I like to call it a lot of "pressure'! All in all it was the most long awaited beautiful 26 hour experience I have ever had with a healthy and precious gift from the Lord at the end.
