Usually Misora has been up and cranky between 2-5am but after feeding her at 130 she slept until 630 
hope its not a one time thing
Today is going to be a sad day because T has to go back to Tokyo at least I leave the clinic tomorrow
Best night so far November 7, 2009
only day 4? November 6, 2009
feels like forever since I arrived. I am glad that on day 2 I was moved to my own room with a shower. Dr took out my stitches this morning and T and I had a baby bath lesson. Later I will be getting a massage. BF going well she has started gaining weight again
end of day 2 November 4, 2009
feeling pretty good mostly just my muscles aching. TMI but I had my first 2 bms without having any problems thanks to the prunes I have been eating with my meals
also had a nice shower、 they didnt want me to have one until Fri talk about smelly 
aftermath November 2, 2009
Afterbirth only took 4 mins to come out、 I did get stiched up for 2 tears and lets say sitting isnt comftable.
did manage to get her latched to one breast last night but didnt get to my bed again until 230
pushing 3 November 2, 2009
once her head started emerging it still took 30 mins to get her out、since she took such a long time emerging I was able to see her come out、her head reminded me of a hamburger. It took 4 hours to get her out and I could hardly move after
pushing part 2 November 2, 2009
the sideways pushing got her head down but took up my strenght. at this point the made mom and T leave again. one nurse started pushing on my belly which my mom told me not to let them do. eventually they were let back in
pushing part 1 November 2, 2009
At that time we called a nurse back and I was allowed to start pushing. this was the hardest part. after pushing for 3 hours she still wasnt coming out and I was loosing energy. They switched me to my side to see if that would work which it did
Labor part 2 November 2, 2009
They checked me at 5cm and I went back to my room. Now I will say T was good in staying with me the whole time but we had to remind him not to move suddenly or talk while having a contraction and to get him not to let the nurses chat with me either.
around 630 I was taken to the labor room where I had to go it alone until the woman next door had her baby. from the time I went in to the time mom and T joined me I went from 7 to 8 cm. I kept fighting the urge to push until around 8
birth story part 1 November 2, 2009

After they broke my water I have to say labor pains really werent that bad. I spent most of the time walking the hall. towards the end the pain changed to a I have a bowel movement coming feeling.
