My sweet Angel is finally here. His name is Isaiah Ludger Peter. Born at 6:01 pm; weighing in at 7 lbs 8oz with a length of 52cm. Ludger is his grandfather's name and Peter is my grandfather. I got sick a few times but not sure if ot was caused by the epidural or the fact i hardly ate anything today. I don't think I tore too badly and sadly I got some minor stretch marks. So far he has latched on pretty good so I am hoping that it continues to stay that way as my first experience was horrible. Other than that, I seem to be okay. It's pretty late here (11:30pm) and I've been up since 6:00am so I should try and rest but also trying to keep crackers down.

Dragonfly23 he's a doll, just Beautiful. I hope you recover quickly & Congratulations to your family!!!

@dragonfly23 - Congrats! Hope all is well with the family.

AFM: I'm definitely out, still nothing more than a shadow. So now I'm waiting for the witch to arrive.

@dragonfly: Thinking of you and hope you and cute, little Isaiah are doing well! I hope you're recovering very well! Make sure to rest and eat! :)

The witch got to me this morning. But rather than feeling sad, I'm actually more relieved at this point. I knew days ago that this wouldn't be a healthy pregnancy, so I just wanted af to show up so that we could start trying again. I will continue with maca this cycle, but are switching to capsules instead. Hopefully they will be nicer to my stomach and doesn't taste as bad.

@DiviniumLiv - I'm sorry to here af showed up but I'm glad to see you being positive about it all. Does you DH take the maca as well? I've heard that it can be helpful on their end too. I also had my DH start taking a vitamin that was specifically for males trying to conceive he got through about two months of it before we got our BFP. They say males need 3 months for their sperm to really adjust or be different from the supplements they take. I'll be crossing my fingers for you this month.

@FlamingoGirl13 - No, he doesn't take maca. But he takes a supplement that contains zinc and other stuff. I think he takes L-arginin too.

@DiviniumLiv - I'm pretty sure that was in the supplement my DH took as well. We'll probably put him on it again when we start ttc #2. It can't hurt right!

DiviniumLiv, I have a pack of black maca for the hubby that has never been opened. It is powdered. I got my bfp before my bf had to take it. It is from Amazon. If you message Mr I'll send it to you.

@Kelliria - Thanks for the offer. But I actually live in Sweden, so I'm guessing the shipping cost won't be that cheap.
