Well, we had an interesting day!! I started having pains (after my first cervical check yesterday). They grew increasingly worse throughout the night and around 5 am, I began to worry due to the severity of pain. Turns out, I had been in labor for hours and had no idea! I began timing them and called my doctor. My contractions were 5 minutes apart, and by the time we made it to the office, they were 2 minutes apart. They checked again and I was 3-4 cm dilated and they immediately admitted me to L&D. Long story short, miss Mallory Kate was born at 5:26pm. She was a chunker at 8 lbs, 13 oz! Delivery was very difficult in some aspects, as I'm very petite and the doctor had a very hard time getting her out. She is in the NICU, on oxygen and praying that she does not have nerve damage from her arms being stretched very far in order to get her out. Yall have been so supportive and amazing throughout this whole experience and I just would like to ask for your prayers for our sweet little girl!
Oh my gosh @kedbach! First of all, congratulations! Second, whoa, that's pretty crazy. Many prayers that you and Miss M recover smoothly and quickly. When you are settled, we'd love to see a picture of your beautiful little girl.
I am praying that she doesn't have any damage positive thinking. She came into the world like a champ many T&P coming your way! What a day huh? 8lbs. Wow. Welcome baby.
Yep, she was so big and they were so shocked!!!!! I'm diabetic but my a1c was a 6.0, so it was perfect! They have no explanation other than she is going to be tall!! It was difficult birthing her for sure!
How crazy!! Congratulations, Mama!! When was your due date again??
August 2!! @-) But just yesterday we had scheduled an induction for July 26! So she was definitely a surprise! But based on her weight, I think she knew it was her time to come join us!
Congratulations!!! Hope LO is out of the NICU soon and there is no nerve damage!
