&lt;p&gt;My name is Stefanie, short Steffy, and I am 30 years old. I am mom of Alexis, Emily&amp;nbsp;and Lukas.&amp;nbsp;I am&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;married to my DH for 9 1/2 years now.&amp;nbsp; I am from Germany and moved to the states 03/08. With Emily I experienced PPD, for which I was taking medication 3.5 Years. My last Pregnancy was just wonderful and I enjoyed it alot. Even though I developed Gestational Diabetes and Preeclampsia in the end. Because of that the doctors wanted to induce me in the 39th week. I was long against it because Alexis was induced in 35th week and it hurt like hell , plus I was in labor for 40 hours. With Emily I was lucky because it only took 2 hours. Eventually I gave in (I couldnt take the risk of ignoring the docs advice) and They induced me on September 30. 19 Hours later Lukas was born.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Alexis was born on&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;October&amp;nbsp;4. 2000. She was 5lbs 11oz and 18.9 inches tall&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Emily was born on &amp;nbsp;December 15 ,2004. She was 9 lbs 2oz and 21.5 inches tall&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lukas was born on October 1, 2009. He was 7lbs 11 oz and 20 inches tall&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am glad Lukas was born in october because (i don&amp;#39;t really now why) I didn&amp;#39;t want him to be a september baby. Even Though it would have been neat, because september 30 was a wednesday and both my girls were born on a wednesday. Well, that&amp;#39;s it from me&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Steffy&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
