Labor went fast and I made it through transition without feeling like I was going to die. This was the first time I used a birthing ball and it was my best friend throughout labor. In the end our little guy received the name of Caleb Ethan.Dionnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14458887619122942957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193225017879543369.post-87626350340134073742010-10-16T07:23:32.273-05:002010-10-16T07:23:32.273-05:00Very big congrats on the beautiful new baby!

Hopefully the right name will come to you in time! :) I found myself going back to derivations or to names that sounded very close to the names of our other children. I guess I just had sounds that I liked, and they stuck close to my mind. Some of our kids middle names appeal to me as first names, too.<br /><br />As for quick and easy...sheesh. I don't know. I always fear it too. This time, I feared having some young trooper deliver my baby by the side of the expressway at 3:00 in the morning. I tried not to move very much, told Jeff where to avoid the bumps in the road, told the nurse to not check me too aggressively before the doctor came, etc. I wasn't afraid of giving birth at home so much - I mean - millions of women do that! I think we could have handled it - but with my rh factor/etc., it likely would have involved a transfer to the hospital anyway, and that didn't sound so fun to me. I knew it would be quick (my labors just are...) so why not go where I needed to eventually be, anyway?<br /><br />I'll be praying for you. Please, as you can, stop by and let me know when your little one is born!Hollyhttp://www.seekingfaithfulnessblog.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193225017879543369.post-80577672005873477452010-10-11T14:41:32.997-05:002010-10-11T14:41:32.997-05:00Thank you all!

This was a tough pregnancy- what with all that has been happening over the months. Very exhausting. But he is such a treasure. <br /><br />Vanessa - yes - I remember that the name Gabriel was your suggestion. :) I've always liked the name!<br /><br />Margaret - yes - I've never had a baby this big. My Emily was 8lbs. 9 ounces - and she was at least a week late. I'm so happy he decided it was time to be born!Hollyhttp://www.seekingfaithfulnessblog.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193225017879543369.post-8439704050971268332010-10-11T13:28:45.146-05:002010-10-11T13:28:45.146-05:00Congrats, Holly and family.
