Little Ezra decided to join us a few weeks early:) And it really is true when people tell you that each birth is different. Micah was early too, but nice and straightforward; my water broke, and it was a no-brainer that I had to head to the hospital. Even my contractions were texbook cramp-like pains. This was pretty much the scenario I was expecting with LittlE. I was SO wrong! With spectacularly bad timing, X, Mster and I caught a bad flu bug which we took nearly 3 weeks to fully recover from. So I didn’t think much of it, when I woke up sweaty and feeling really exhausted one morning. Then, I started getting these horrible sharp tummy pains, but convinced myself that it was because I was a.sick, and b.very pregnant and still lifting Mster everywhere (he was still sick and clingy). I plodded through the day, sweating from the pain and telling myself it was normal. It was only at 3am the next morning, when I couldn’t sit or stand from the stabbing pains, that I thought, maybe, just maybe, I should head to the hospital now, just in case. Things moved quickly from there, and about an hour later, Ezra Jeevan Xavier was born:) He’s tiny, but so was M, so I’m not worried. The best part is that the breastfeeding has been a breeze, thank God. We are still working out the family dynamics, and M has been testing our patience,but it’ll sort itself out. We have a new baby!
