The waiting game is on (Over!)

How is she?! How are you?! If the nose and feet are presenting, no bag, the baby is breathing air and will need to be born soon. If she is taking a breather its okay, just don't let him get sucked back in so to speak.

Cannot wait to hear!
 
Well, that was not fun. over 2 hours, 45 minutes of that was me pulling. She broke her water less than 25 minutes in after her first big push. I waited the hour I read about and there was no presenation, it was the rest of the placenta (I think?) I had seen. She would not push unless I was in there. Finally I called someone and asked what I was doing wrong, that the baby was huge and I didn't think I could get it out and he said: "Pull down, not out." 5 Minutes, a ton of hollaring, me trying to figure out if she's pushing or screaming, she delivered a massive, beautiful buckling. Took some effort to revive him, but he's up nursing now.

Welcome to the world, Henry.
