Brodix Matthew Beardall



born on 11/8/08 at 12:15 pm

weight: 8 lbs 3oz

length: 21 3/4 in.


After the week of being dialated to 5 cm and having braxton hicks. Sat my water broke. I was in labor and delivery and went from that 5 to 10 cm in 30 min. So basically had 30 mins of active labor and 12 min of pushing. Now I have to tell you, I think those that choose a natural birth (no epidural) are crazy or really really strong. My epidural did not kick in all the way and man was that painful! but I am glad he is here now and healthy. His face was completly bruised because of the fast labor but that only lasted for a day or so.
