Baby Noah

October 23, 2007 my third baby, Noah, was born at 2:30 am. I went into labour 4 hours earlier during of all things, watching "The Bachelor". I hate to even admit that. All went well and no surprises!! I was infact 5 days early and was in denial for the first 2 hours of labour. I kept saying to my mid-wife, are you sure I am having this baby now? Sure enough the last hour and a half of labour and half hour of pushing were furious and hard, so I realized that it was indeed real and baby was on his way.
Noah is beautiful, perfect and a joy in every way.
I am now a mom of three and am busy beyond my understanding of the word. I am now after 8 weeks post-partum back at work. Its a fine balance. The toughest part is pumping the milk and getting back home in time for the next feed. I am having a tough time getting ahead and saving up the milk supply since he keeps going through growth spurts.
I do enjoy being at work, its a break!!! No poopy diapers or washing bottles. I am very excited to be back and to share my experiences with my patients.
