Stella Rose!
We welcomed our little lady into this world on thursday evening. And it was the craziest labor experience, I still have no idea what happened! I labored at home all day and contractions were inconsistent for the most part, and tolerable, but finally when they were averaging closer to 5 min apart I called the midwife. I was diverted from my regular hospital to another one which is a little further drive from home, so I was mad about that at first, but we loaded up and took off about 5:30 pm. Had a few pretty strong contractions in the car, got to the hospital then whisked up to maternity. Got into the room at 6:00 on the dot, my nurse wanted me to get all settled, and I wanted to be checked by my midwife. She came in at about 10 after and said that I was at 7cm but 100% effaced. I got onto the bed and asked about getting the tub filled to labor in there and she said pretty much no, because I would have like 2 contractions and then have to get out. So I said fine I would just get into a different position on the bed, or use the ball. Well after I got up and was kneeling I felt the urge to push and they said that was fine, so I pushed about 3 times, and there she was. 6:19 pm. It was total insanity, I still cannot get over how quick she came and I am so glad we got there when we did! Also really amazing, she was born in her bag of waters, we unfortunately didn't get to see what that looked like as the midwife ripped it open real quick to get her out and to me right away. But she's here and we're in love!
