Our baby girl is here! (ETA her name and picture)

in Pregnant after IF

Sorry I haven't been able to update yet...Our baby girl arrived safely on Tuesday evening at 7:14 PM, 7 lbs. 13 oz. and 19 inches.  She is as sweet as can be. 

My labor and the delivery really went as smoothly as possible, but then I had a really rough first night after the epidural started wearing off.  I got a lot of extra pain meds and made it through fine.  My recovery ended up being kind of drawn out because my red blood cell count was low and they wanted to do a CT scan to check for internal bleeding (thankfully the results were totally normal), and I was not able to get off the catheter until today (could NOT pee on my own yesterday or the day before - very frustrating!).  Today all of my results were looking good, and we are now home and happy.

I am so thankful for all of the support I have gotten from everyone on these boards as we struggled to make it to this point.  I will be here cheering all of you on!

ETA: Sorry!  Her name is Molly Jean. Smile  And hopefully her picture shows up below.

    Congratulations!!  So happy for you.  Hope you are feeling better and sorry for the rough recovery.

    After 1 IUI, 3 IVF's with CGH/CCS testing, 10 early miscarriages, and lots of tears and frustration, we are moving on to Domestic Infant Adoption!  We are so excited to see what the future holds.
