I guess she wanted to be an Oct baby... (Birth Announcement)  

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 
I'm finally announcing the birth of our daughter, Jenna Victoria, born October 1 at home in the water. The labor was quite fast. I had kept saying she better just fly out of me (gently, but fly out) since I was overdue. And that she did! I pushed her out in just a few pushes within 10 minutes! I couldn't believe how fast things went as I was so shocked once I was pushing then felt her head. I didn't realize I was ever as far along as I was.

Stats:
9lbs 2oz
22"

On day 3 for her Birth Day party, which my 2.5 y/o son decorated for http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...344resized.jpg

We were going to do her bday party the day she was born. DS was supposed to decorate while I was in labor but I labored in the early morning hours while he slept. So he decorated on day 2 and we had the party on day 3.

Congrats! I love her chubby cheeks. That's so great that it was such a fast labor and pushing phase too.
