Violet Alicia is here- 8/31- barely made it in the DDC!!

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 
Labor started saturday at 6:00pm (we were at mass!) and then until about 7:30 the next morning we didn't have much progress. I stayed around 2-3cm. After the midwife left at 7:30 things picked up quickly. I got into the bath around 9-9:30 I went into the bathtub and my water broke around 10 in there.(what a good place!) and then we called Sharon back out and she came around 10:30 and I delivered at 11:32am. Dad got to deliver her. Her head was sideways! both boys were face up and we were expecting her to be. So it was a longish early labor but active labor was pretty short.:
She is 7 lbs 8 oz. I was exactly 41weeks. She is very calm and just looks around. Not fussy at all!!! We got lots of sleep last night!
