Our beautiful little girl, Riley Jane, was born on August 3rd, 2009 at Hoag in Newport Beach. She was 10 lbs., 4 oz. and 21 inches long -- quite a baby (my OB won the poll that day for biggest baby! )
Thanks everyone on the site for your fabulous support -- it was wonderful reading everyone's opinions and thoughts about pregnancy!

Congratulations! I love her name.
We're using Jane for a middle name too if we have a girl.
She's great! She was born via C-section due to her breech position. Actually, I'm grateful I didn't try to turn her, as discussed in previous posts -- she was really wedged in my uterus. The three doctors were tugging and pulling so vigorously, my husband, the anesthesiologist and I were all giving each other with rather concerned looks as the surgical drape was dancing above me!
She still hasn't recovered to her birth weight, but doc says that's to be expected with such a big baby. She chows down her food -- so much that I'm having trouble keeping up with supply (which will be another post)!
Thanks for all the great thoughts!
