Don't have time, energy, or brain power to put pics up yet, but Mia Margaret was born Sept. 18 at 4:03 pm. She is ADORABLE, we love her to death. I was shocked it was a girl, I really thought it was a boy, and so did the doc! She was 7 lbs 1 oz, and 19 inches. Breastfeeding is working, but making me sore so I'm not a pro yet. (no "real" milk yet, but I feel it coming, ha ha). the induction was NO peice of cake! First epidural didn't take--why me? Second one worked, but not enough. Went from 3cm to 10cm in about 1.5 hours and doctor had to speed over to the hospital. Dang, that was the hardest thing I ever did, didn't expect the foreceps either!
BUT--it's all worth it. We got home this afternoon and we're trying to settle in and figure out when and how to sleep. I'm on painkillers because I had a pretty huge episiotomy and I'm pretty uncomfortable. But--we did it!! We're home! And she's the best!

Congratulations! I know from our own experience that the labor/birth doesn't always go as expected. You plan all you can and then go with what actually happens ( easier said then done) Those first few sleep deprived weeks were probably the best of my life- I hope you savor every moment!
