SHE is here!!!

SHE is here!!! It's a LITTLE GIRL and I cannot believe it.
It was the best surprise for us. This goes down as one of the best days ever.
I introduce to you: Miss Squeak!
We arrived at the hospital at 5AM for our induction. By 6AM, the doctor broke my water and the pitocin drip started. I was already 3 cm dilated and having contractions. I didn't feel much until about 10AM and by 11AM I could feel a lot. I had the labor and deliver nurse commit to me that she was fine with me going natural ... and going for the epidural. My husband was with me too - we had talked a lot about our birth plan after the birthing class and I felt dissuaded from the epi. I did receive two rounds of IV drugs and that helped get through the pain. After 45 minutes of pushing, SHE was here at 2:45PM. She weighed 6 pounds and 13 ounces, 19 1/2 inches long, and is absolutely perfect. We love her to the moon and back!!! Xoxo-BLC
