Team green turned blue yesterday! My water broke at 4am, contractions/active labor didn't start until around 2pm. After only 13 minutes of pushing, little Ned was born at around 9pm. Made it through without any pain meds, even though I was seriously questioning the wisdom of that goal in those last few hours ( @uws22 was a champ and SO supportive, he got me through it).
Ned was born at 37w5d. He weighed 6lb 10oz and was 20" long. I'm still finding it hard to believe that he's here already.
At 38w4d Amelia Grace entered the world this morning at 10:28am weighing 7 lbs 3 oz, 20 inches long! She was a pretty speedy labor and delivery! Got to the hospital a little before 7 and I was already at 6cm... 3.5 hours later she was here! I did have an epidural, only one small tear. I'm having trouble with pictures on mobile but she is super squishy and absolutely precious! Mom and baby are both doing great!
Baby Scarlett was born at 39 weeks on June 26th at 11:51am. 7lbs and 1 oz and 18.5 inches long. We went with Maxine for a middle name (family name). She was breech and wouldn't flip so got here via c section. Finally doing okay after a not fun first day from a bad reaction to the spinal meds. Hoping for a smooth recovery!
Sophie (Sophia Lynn) was born 6/26 at 38 weeks and 2 days weighing 7lbs
6oz and measuring at a tall 21 and a half inches. She was an induction
turned c section due to preeclampsia and then labor/delivery
complications. All is now well and she is perfectly healthy and perfect

Jackson was born at 37-1( slightly different date used) on 6/27@430pm. he weighed 7lbs5oz and was 20inchds long. I was induced got blood pressure and protein in urine but no confirmed preeclampsia. ended up with a c section because little man was trying to come out my hip instead of going straight down. He's in the nicu for some grunting at birth but we expect him to be out soon. sorry for phone typos.
Luke Ronald born at 36w 1d on 6/25 at 11:13pm. 7lbs 2oz 19.5inches. We were shocked how big he was for his age! Had lots of contractions the week before that they were trying to stop that never really left but slowed a ton. Went in at 8pm on 6/25 because I thought I was contracting more again. They still didnt think I was dilated so they tried an iv bag to slow them. They slowed from 2-3min to 3-4min. Thought eventually they would be sending me home but when they checked me again at 9:30pm I was 4cm!! So I instantly was getting prepped for a repeat csection. I was in shock because I didn't feel that uncomfortable for being that far along! So happy to say mommy and baby are doing great and getting ready to go home today . So in love with my little boy!!!
Zane Christopher entered our world today at 340pm. I have been have migraines for over a week, was admitted Thursday and induced this morning.
