from day 1 she's been my little chunka munka

She's was a beautiful newborn. those rosey cheeks! WOW! And now, more wow :) she's sitting up so happy & proud. Great job MOM!

@16years2life, thank you! i only pushed for 7 minutes so she didn't get as squished as a lot of babies can. even my ob said wow about her. lol.

You seriously just made me choke LOL! How big was she at birth? And Damn, any tips for the pushing strategy? I'll be sure to share it with our surrogate! haha

she was 8lbs 3oz 20in. as for pushing, I'm not sure. haha. she was 3days overdue so she was just ready!! i honestly think she did most of it. Lol. the days leading up to her arrival it felt like she was clawing at me to get free. and after she arrived my Dr said there was some internal tearing, like she actually scratched me. Lol.

@16years2life,

that's hysterical!

I had that kind of tearing too. my doctor said that's rare

@firstbaby_girl, really? mine only made that comment about how it was there. never went any further

yeah. he said I had 3 tears and that one was internal and it was rare to see that. all I said was huh
