Liam's Birth Story

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.
