Good Christmas News!!

Hi ladies, I haven't posted in a while because I've been more busy on another board - Post-Op Pregnancy. I just wanted to post our birth announcement - James "Jamie" Allyn Barr was born on December 19th at 6:28p.m. He was a perfect 7lbs 12oz and 20.5" long. I had an unmedicated VBAC, but only because I progressed so quickly that they didn't have time to get me the epidural! LOL There are alot of horror stories circulating out there about having a baby post-RNY but I have to say that this was my easiest pregnancy yet and Jamie appears to be my most healthy and easiest baby so far. I gained 30lbs over the 9 months, about 10 of those in the last 6-8 weeks. My dr's were very supportive of my pregnancy and felt that everything was right on track. I've lost about 14lbs so far and I feel that once I get the breastfeeding all settled in that I should be able to get at least to my pre-pregnancy weight pretty quickly. I just wanted to share my good news and let you all know that I will be lurking around more than I have recently. Happy New Years to everyone!
