Baby Girl was born Monday September 29th at 2:50pm. She was 6 pounds, 9 oz and 19 inches long. She is absolutely beautiful and has dark hair, which is surprising considering that all of our other kids are tow-headed.
My delivery was a little more exciting than we had hoped. Right before the baby was ready to be born, my mother started having chest pains and feeling sick. She was rushed to the ER downstairs and missed the entire thing :-0 In spite of this, God was very good and gave me a peace throughout the entire delivery. Mom's blood pressure was 205/110, but fortunately it was determined that she did not have a heart attack. She was just stressed and had overdone things the past few weeks. After a few hours, she and Dad were able to come back upstairs and see their new granddaughter :-)
I did have some blood pressure issues during delivery and am still somewhat swollen. I have also had some post-partum issues with bleeding, so they gave me Oxytocin even after delivery to slow this down. We came home tonight because with Mom sick, we were having too many issues with childcare. My OB made me promise to stay down and get some help, so Jason is doing his best to coordinate things and allow me to rest. I plan on taking it easy, since I do not want to go back ;-)
