Crunch Crunch Crunch

In 1997 I labored at home for two hours then had my first baby at the hospital. I breastfed my first daughter. She slept in a crib in the room my husband and I slept in. In 2004 I labored at home in my living room, on a birth ball, writing down contractions, snoozing, chatting with my 7-year old for seven hours before delivering my second child at the hospital. I held her before they cut her cord. I breastfed my second daughter. She slept in a crib in the room my husband and I slept in. I sometimes carried her in a sling. In 2007 I labored at home but slept through most of eight hours before delivering my third baby at the Army hospital near the Air Force base where my husband was stationed. I breastfed my third daughter. She slept in my arms on our couch. I sometimes carried her in a sling. In 2011 I was induced because my husband was moving to another state two days later, but I was released from the hospital after only one night. I breastfed my first son and last baby. He sleeps in my arms every night. I sometimes carry him in a sling. He sometimes wears cloth diapers. He was exclusively breastfed past six months. He is not circumcised. I don't use a stroller as I take walks every day, I carry him in my arms. I am getting crunchier, the more you know the better you do. :)
