Hey guys,

 

I don't have time for a full update at the moment, but my baby girl is here!  :)  Here she is:

She was born at 8:49pm on 7/10/2012, 20 inches long and 8 lbs, 5 oz, after an attempted homebirth which became a hospital transfer- she was posterior and got stuck on my pelvic bone.  My labor lasted 42 hours total.  I got an epidural at the hospital due to my exhaustion, and had a tiny amount of pitocin - only 8 whatever their thing of measurement is...  I think mL?  Anyway, even though it was a transfer, it was a great birth experience and I wouldn't change anything about it.  She is wonderful and I am just crazy about her and feel so fortunate that I was able to have her vaginally after all that time.

 

I will check back in soon - hope everyone is doing really well!
