Ayman R arrived on 13 nov, 4:40pm. I was already 3cm, induction of 3 hrs, with Epidural .. And less than 5 min of pushing. She's here and perfect ...MA! We can't be more in love with this precious little blessing
I can't believe this pregnancy phase is over and A new phase of motherhood is here! Yayyyy
Blake Weston arrived quickly on November 16. 7lbs 14.5 ounces of sweet baby boy. Big sister, daddy and mommy are in love with their precious little man...just waiting to take him home
I'm a little late in responding to this thread...my November baby turned into an October baby Timothy James was born at 37 weeks even via repeat c-section on October 22, 2014 at 12:14pm. He weighed 8 lbs, 2 oz & was 21 inches long. He joins his 2 sisters & 1 big brother!!!! We were team green for the very first time & it was the most amazing experience to find out we were adding a 2nd boy to our family!
Finnegan William was born on 11/15 at 9:56pm. I labored for almost 30 hours and made it to 9 3/4 dilated when I spiked a fever so they took me in for a c-section. He was 7lbs 15oz and just over 20" of pure perfection! Here he is reacting to some of my attempts at "mom jokes":
Nila Madeline born 11/18 (her due date). She's pure perfection at 8lbs 15oz, 21.5 inches long. I went in for cervical readiness on the 17th night, my water broke at 1:30am on the 18th and contractions soon began. Baby girl was born at 4:33pm after 1.5hrs of pushing.
Wow! At approximately 8:50pm, 11/18/2014, we are so excited to finally meet Jude Archer. 8lb 15oz and 20 & 1/4 inches tall. We are absolutely smitten with this lil' handsome guy.
Short story short, I went in for an induction and MW thought that since I'm already contracting a little bit, she'd try to break waters first before pitocin. It worked very well. I gave birth three hours later. It was absolutely intense.
I am in love with this little guy. He's such a cutie.
Piper Laine was born November 10 at 2:40 PM, 7 lbs. 5 oz. and 21 inches long. We went home briefly the next day but ended up back in pediatrics four hours later with feeding issues. We were there for three days, but she's doing so well now and has surpassed her birthweight!

Anna Artice (middle name in honor of her great grandmother) was born at 12:40am on 11/6. She was 20.5 inches long and weighed 7 lbs 9.5 oz. Birth story to come soon - still bummed we couldn't hold out for 11/28!
Grant Campbell was born yesterday, Nov 20th, at 41+3 weighing 10 lbs 2 oz and he is 21 inches long.
Not only was there no shoulder dystocia (as feared by the OB who wanted to do CS) but he was out in 4 pushes with minimal tearing. I also managed to make it med-free despite being on a rather sturdy dose of pit, I believe.
Camden Pierce was born 11-13-14 via induction at 39 weeks, 13 hours of labor, 30 minutes of pushing, and an episiotomy. He weighs 6lbs 12oz and is 20-3/4" long. Perfect little bundle!
Can't seem to get the photo right side up!
William John was born on November 18 at 11:27 pm. He weighed 9 lbs 10 oz. We're having a bit of an extended stay at the hospital but birth story and picture to follow when we get home.
Leo made quite an entrance on 11/19 at 12:55 p.m. 10 lb 6 oz and 22 in long! (40 + 2 days)
We had no idea he was so big until delivery and it was definitely scary. Head was delivered and then the mood changed quickly when the Dr. discovered shoulder dystocia (both shoulders were stuck behind my pelvis). Thankfully, after performing the McRoberts maneuver, suprapubic pressure and rotating him all the way he was delivered. They thought his clavicle may have been fractured but the x-ray showed all was okay, what a relief! We're both pretty banged up but so thankful and blessed that all is well.
Enjoying my sweet baby's squishy cheeks!!
Scarlett Marie 5lbs 13 ounces 19.5 inches long... 33 hour induction and wouldn't dilate so c section with epidural and spinal... born November 20th at 9:37pm
Rhett Edward made his appearance 11-14-14 (39 weeks, 5 days) after 13 hours of labor and only 20ish minutes of pushing at 12:27pm! He was 7lb 11.8oz and 21.26in! And unlike my birthplan, I was completely unmedicated for everything... never thought I could do that!
Meet Theodore Andrew! He was born on 11/17 (2 days after EDD) after about 12 hours of labor and an hour of pushing. He weighed in at 7 lbs. 2 oz. and measured 20" long. His hobbies are sleeping, eating, and sleeping some more. Thanks for all the T&Ps!
Jackson Wesley surprised us two weeks early, born on 11/18 at 12:27! 8lbs 10 ozs (the doctors are pretty sure he was 40 weeks and the EDD was off). He is wonderful!
Ramona Violet was born this morning at 6:47 am. She weighs 7 pounds 8oz and is 20 1/2 inches long. Birth story to follow but it couldn't have gone better.
Aubree Rose born Saturday November 23 at 7:53 A.M. at birth 6lb 4oz and is 19 inches long. Birth did not go as planned had to have an emergency c section but thankfully she is here safely and healthy. She's also a little finger sucker and has mommy and daddy wrapped around her little finger.
Kenzie Liliana made her appearance on 11/22 at 2 pm after being induced starting the night before. She weights 7lbs 10oz and is 21 inches long. My husband and I are totally taken by her and can't believe that it is real! Will post birth story and pictures once we are home.
I am extremely proud to introduce Aria Winter born 11/17 at 2:48 pm, my water broke at 1:45 am the same day. 9 lbs, 20.5 inches. She is just absolutely wonderful and we are so in love. I can't believe she's all ours! Will post birth story soon.
I've been somewhat of a lurker over the past 40ish weeks, but thought I'd post our birth announcement anyways! Evelyn Elizabeth was born on 11/04, at 39 weeks & 3 days. She was 6 lbs 13 ounces, 18.25 inches long. She's such a great baby, and we couldn't be more in love!
Gwyneth Kay was born 11-21-14 at 39w3d. Real contractions started after about 6 days of pre-labor contractions. There was no confusing the real ones and the practice ones! Once they started, the contractions were about 3 1/2 minutes apart right out of the gate. I had a lovely birth experience that lasted about 8 hours from start to finish. We are just thrilled to have our little lady with us. She was 7lb 1oz and 20.67in long.
Miss Madeline Rose arrived on November 23rd at 4:34pm at 41 weeks. She weighed 6lbs 11oz and is 19.5 inches long. She's so precious and has her daddy and I totally in love.
Meet Lucia Quynh! She was born on Friday 11/21 after 53 (!) hours of labor, not the birth I "planned" but successfully med-free! She was 6 lbs, 12 oz and 19 inches long. She had a rough start, but is doing wonderfully (birth story to follow). We feel so incredibly blessed to have this precious girl in our lives.
Elijah Aaron Reece was welcomed today 11/24 at 2:02pm weighing 7lbs 2oz and 20in and 40w 2days. We were induced due to a slow amniotic leak through pitocin and after 15hrs of med free labor 7mins of punching we welcomed this very stoic and quiet little guy full birth story to follow when we get home!
Team green turned team pink!! Miss Clara Grace entered the world on November 24th by RCS. She weighed 8lbs 12oz and measured 20.5 inches long. DS will hopefully warm up to her but for now he just watches from a distance.
A little late in posting, but we welcomed little Hadley to our family on November 16th. I was convinced we were having a boy, so I was in disbelief when I learned she was a girl- a big girl at that, 9lbs 3oz, 21" long. It was a long 24 hour labour, but ended with a successful vbac- we couldn't be happier with our newest addition to our family.
Brooke Violet was born on November 23 at 9:57PM. My little munchkin decided to come on her due date weighing 9lbs 6 oz and 21 inches long. I laboured for 20 hours before deciding to have a c section due to her not coming down properly. She is my everything already.
Logan Donald was born November 26th at 2:51am. He came one day early, weighing 8lbs12oz and 20 1/2" long. He took it easy on his mom and came out after fifteen minutes of pushing. Already the light of our lives!
