Well I am officially a Mommy

Hi girls! I just posted this on PAL and wanted to come over here since I am officially a Mom now. Here is my post from PAL:

Hi girls! Well I am officially a Mommy now! We got home yesterday afternoon and are slowly settling in. I know Gina updated you guys last week but we had Madeline Grace on Friday morning, Feb. 19 at 3:39 a.m. I was supposed to be induced Friday morning around 8 a.m. but things progressed very quickly after being admitted Thursday night and starting the Cervadil. I went from 2 cm to 9 cm in an hour and half so the nurses were all in shock when DH called them in after not being able to listen to me cry any longer and they realized I was about to have a baby! The doctor went home after I was 2 cm thinking nothing would happen. I will write a full birth story and some things I definitely learned over the weekend. Madeline latched on right away for breastfeeding but I have not gotten my milk in and she seems to get frustrated after awhile because I don't think she is getting enough so we have had to supplement. She has her days and nights mixed up too so I am not getting any sleep really but hopefully we will get things figured out soon. Anyway, here is a pic and I will update when I have some more time. Hope everyone is doing well!
