Thanks. Still at home now... Going to be a fuck'in early AM baby.
My mother decided to inform me last night that I was 3 weeks early... Turns out EVERYONE in my direct family was 3 weeks early.... and now my kid will be 3 weeks early...
A minor positive is we will get to claim him on this years taxes...

This is your first?Got yah.
Wifes contractions are all over the place still after ~16 hours.
I'm hoping my wife isn't early, though I feel like she's going to be.

Yeah, first.
Wife is almost at the pushing stage after 36+ hours. Hard to tell when labor really started but she started feeling contractions, etc on Monday night.
I will never understand people who go for nature childbirth. Wife has been on the epidural for 8 hours now... Her pain prior to that was hard to watch.

There are lots of very good reasons for natural childbirth. Youre experiencing one of them now, 36+ hours labors. Epidurals slow labor, so they give pitocin, which makes the next contractions more painful, so they give more painkillers. Its an endless cycle of unnecessary interventions that make the process worse for both mom and baby in the name of reducing pain.
My wife is bad ass. Three natural births, the last one at home.
Congrats, in any case. No matter how they come into the world these little snot factories are the best thing in life.

Epidural did not go in until after 24 hours. Wife has not slept in 2 days at that point. (Neither has I)

Sounds like my time as well, total time at hospital was nearly 5 days after three days of labor.

My wife's first labor was pretty long. Water broke at 7am on Friday, checked into the hospital at noon Friday, Baby born Sunday at ~3am. Had to go on Pitocin to induce artifical cramps because of the water breaking before actual labor began. She was miserable... I never really raised my voice except to explain to the staff about the need for the anesthesiologist to hurry his ass up and put in the epidural.
Next 2 kids went quick (6 hours of total labor for number 2, 90 minutes for number 3).

Our first one was about 31 hours also, epidural went in at about hour 25. Stupid ass kids with their stupid ass big heads.

Not really, once they get in the "canal" so to speak they usually come right out (with tears or not). It's getting the head through the hips/cervix thats the issue. Vaginas are quite elastic, I'm not sure if you've seen various videos on pornhub, but...
