33 hours of labor = Ivy! *added pictures*

[~Megan~]

So after 30 hours of start and stop labor (with no more than 15 minutes of not having contractions) active labor finally kicked in.

Around 4 am my contractions got close together and stayed close together. 3 hours of active labor including pushing is intense! I pushed about 30 minutes with 4 full minutes of crowning!

She slipped out into the pool with her dad, brother, and sister observing at 7:11 am (cool time!). She broke a few records being born a week after her brother and sister in gestation and being more than a pound larger than them.

Oh Megan! I'm so happy for you! I didn't know how long it would take but hoped the night would be good for your labor. She is beautiful and looks so peaceful there with her little balled up fist I can't wait to see more pics in the next few weeks with you and her siblings. Rest and enjoy!
