Baby's here!
I almost made it to term!
We had a gorgeous baby GIRL!! We named her Alma Marie and she was born @ 12:44am on the 22nd. Alma weighed 5 lbs 15 ozs and was 20.5 inches long. Just got home yesterday evening because I hemorraged and had to have a two unit blood transfusion (and a VERRRRY painful manual extraction of four large clots). Although we birthed in the hospital I did manage a natural birth, it was not however pain-free, lol. At one point during the final few contractions I was begging K to help me by cutting me open. ;) He was wonderful though and I couldn't have done it without him. <3
Birth story and photos to come as well as more details later under a friends-locked post. Her hospital photos can be found here. (Her length is wrong.)
