Our little girl was born yesterday at 1:56 pm. She was 9 lbs and 6 oz. Yeah, I know! The day before, I had a doctor's appointment and asked him how big he thought she was. He estimated about 7 1/2 or 8 lbs. Everyone was so surprised that she ended up being so big! But she has cute chubby cheeks and little rolls, so I love it!
Everything started out really well. We got to the hospital at 1 am. I was able to be up and about until I got the epidural. But it was nice cuz after the epidural I was able to get a little bit of sleep in since we got there in the middle of the night. I was really nervous when it came time to push, but at that point, there was no backing out! The doctors and nurses kept commenting that everything was going so well and so smoothly. However, as she was being delivered, she kind of got stuck. They didn't expect her to be so big so they were having trouble getting her head and shoulders out. They tried turning her but then they realized that the cord was wrapped around her. Luckily, I was able to push her out quickly. They had to take her to the NICU and give her oxygen for a while.
I was a little worried for a while, but she is doing great now! We haven't settled on a name yet. But we'll keep you posted!
