Good luck. I wish you a painfree and easy birth.Prayers for a safe and healthy delivery. Cant wait to see pics of Emerson. You look great!!
Woo hoo , hopefully the baby will be here soon!
What I LOVE LOVE LOVE is she is totally made up even while giving birth LOL! Her post birth pics are going to look great!
Me too! Takes me back 19 years when I wore full makeup to the hospital to have my Ariel. Love it!
I can't wait for the photos!!
Courtney said:After a lllllooooonnnnngggggg day (yes, long as in, 2:45 am long- YIKES!) of labor and two hours of pushing, Emerson made her arrival at 8:00 pm last night, March 26th.
She weighed 7 lbs 2.2 oz and was 20.5 inches long.
She is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. She couldn't be more perfect. Absolutely amazingly perfect.
It's so amazing how, immediately upon them placing her in my arms, I immediately forgot about all of the pain in those two hours of pushing (they had to give me stronger medicine through the epidural, twice). It was a lot harder than I thought it would be, but SO worth it. I truthfully would do it over a million times if I knew I got the same result of this beautiful little girl. We love her SO much. And she's just so tiny and helpless... Ryan and I are so proud to be her parents.
She slept very well last night... She grunted all night but didn't cry- and they were cute grunts so it was okay (all the while her daddy was over on his sofa/chair snoring!). She's been taking her bottle pretty well considering she's still only hours old.
She's got hair... LOTS of hair. It's dark brown/black, and her eyes are a very dark blue. I have no doubt they'll change to brown b/c she doesn't have much chance of having blue eyes from Ryan or I.
Here is the email Courtney sent me 20 minutes ago ...
