Well she is finally here!
I started having contractions out of the blue on Sunday at around 11:00 pm when Matt and I were getting into bed. They were about 4 to 5 minutes apart and very painful. Keep in mind I don't have a very good pain tolerance. After about 45 minutes we decided to go in to the hospital because they were so close together. We got in and they checked me and I was at a 2.5 almost 3. About 40 minutes later I was at a 4 and they admitted me. I got me epidural and the rest was a breeze. The nurse was amazing and I was laughing while pushing. I only had to push for an hour. My regular doctor was on vacation and so I had an on call doctor who was just a great. She was delivered at 9:40 am. She was 6 lbs. 1 oz. and 19" long. She has long fingers, big feet and a full head of hair.
So all in all (with a lot of help from the epidural), Abi's birth was very good. Now I just have to recover from the epesotamy (however you spell that) :)
Here she is.....Day one....
Day two....
I love t his one. Jeremy was so excited. He wanted to be the first one called. We did but we had the wrong number sense he just changed it. :(
Day 3 going home...
Day 4...
The pants are drowning her.
We are so happy to have Abi and I can't wait to do a photo shoot. I will post more pictures of her birth soon. As for right now, I need a nap. :)
