Still wading through the post birth fog

Body: 

Hello dear WWomen!

Gave birth nearly a month ago. I prayed all throughout my pregnancy that I give birth at home and not tear. God granted me the first but not the second, for which I'm most grateful. I tore along previous episiotomy scar line. Our discussions here gave me strength during the end of a very intense labor to NOT birth on my back. MIdwife suggested I push on my back since I was used to birthing that way and perhaps it would speed things up. I remembered all we'd talked about here and got right up. A few minutes later I was on my knees and baby girl was out. :) No update on the prolapse front, I know there's plenty time for that later. Meanwhile, I don't know how on earth the moms of 4+ do it. *wiped out*

Oh my! How wonderful to hear from you. We were hoping everything went well. Take care of yourself and when the fogs lifts a bit, give us more details. Lots of hugs to you and your sweet girl! Missed you!!!!! - Surviving

So happy for you. You have done an amazing wonderful thing. Thank God for you and your darling daughter.
