Pregnant after a Loss

PIPs of Zuzu and short birth story

First of all, thank you so much for the congratulations, and a huge thanks to luvsdogs for updating the board. We are so blessed to welcome our daughter, Elizabeth Faye ("Zuzu") into the world. After going into labor at 11 p.m. on Tuesday night and not being admitted until 4:30 a.m. on Thursday morning, our sweet girl finally decided to show up at 2:11 p.m. on March 21. She is tall and skinny at 7lbs 3oz. and 21 inches long. And, if I do say so myself, she's pretty gorgeous.

I can't stop staring at her. Smile

 

Thank you all so much for the endless support, both here and on TTCAL. I am so, so happy to be able to hold my rainbow and to know that so many of you have been celebrating with me. I love you all.

    We lost our first (EDD 07/23/12) after finding out at 12 weeks there was no longer a heartbeat. Our rainbow was born 05/22/13 and was worth all we went through.
