I know it's early, but I figured I would post this because I was creeping and we already have a September baby born and I think it can take a while to get stickied!

Baby boy ilyes was borned yesterday sept 24 at 9.26 pm... I was 40w3d 3.04kg, 49 cms. We're both doing great and supposed to be leaving tomorrow morning ❤️. (Will post birth story later)
Born September 27th at 11:47 & 11:54 am. He was 5 lbs 14 oz 18.5 inches long and she was 5 lbs 6 oz 18 inches long. I'm in love and I did it vaginal!! Woohoo.
Born Sept. 28 at 11:41am. He was 8 lbs. 5 oz. And 20 in long.
Just as suspected, his labor and delivery was very fast. Between the time they broke my water to the time he was born, it took a maximum of 2 hours. Doctor is sure if I had gone into labor naturally I would have delivered in the car.
My poor nurse too... Right up to the end they might as well have installed a rotating door on my room. She checked me, said I was 8 cm, then said she would have a nurse get the room ready for delivery. She left and I called her back in seconds later because the contractions monitor came undone. So she fixed it and told me to notify her if I felt more pressure. Well, again seconds later I felt it and the delivery setup nurse came in and I told her. She walked out the door and called down the hall to the other nurse, who then came back. Doctor was there shortly after but my fiance and his mom thought they had time to get lunch, only to be texted by a nurse as they we're ordering to come back because I was fully dilated and ready to deliver. They showed up about 10-15 minutes later, and shortly after baby boy Kieran was born.
Lilly was due oct 14 but was born @ 5:54 on sept 28! Went into my OB with contractions found out I was 6 cm. Got to 10 cm without the epidural but I still wanted it lol she was almost born en caul which would have been awesome water popped as soon as her shoulders slipped out. Successful VBAC!
Baby girl was due October 19th but i ended up needing to have a c-section. She had the umbilical cord wrapped around her neck and her heart rate kept dropping whenever i had contractions. Despite all that, baby girl and myself are doing well. Isabella Marie Grace. Born September 30th at 11:46 am. Pictures will be uploaded later. I'm in love.
Baby Bryson was born at 4:27 10/01/17 via a repeat after a 36 hour labor. The first 24 hours I went without any pain meds except Tylenol Pm , they wouldn't admit me because I was only 3, and they said it would probably lead to a repeat c section. They admitted me the next dy because I he progressed to 3 cm. By 7 that night I was still only 4cm and a station-1. My midwife and Ob then decided to break my waters. They had me use the peqnut ball l, as well as changing potentials. At 11 pm I was checked and had not made any progress so we decided to start pitocin. My midwife came back around 2am to check me and I still had not made any progress. My midwife and Ob wanted me to keep laboring, but after 36 hours of labor I was fed up and requested a repeat c section. I don't remember much from my c section because I fell asleep as soon as I layed on the table! I woke up to my fiance holding the baby, and the nurses asking me if I wanted to do skin to skin. My c section was actually perfect, and I don't regret a thing.
Baby Hudson was born 9/30/17 at 36 wks 6 days because of low amniotic fluid. 5 lbs 15 oz. 20" long. Was in the nicu for about 24 hrs because of breathing issues but is now doing well
Xavier was born this morning at 744am weighing 6lbs 7oz and measuring 19.5in via unplanned c section. I was admitted in the hospital yesterday for respiratory problems and was having some contractions but not dilating past 1cm all day. Since his heartbeat was dipping the doc said we had to have a CS when I got checked at around 715am. So off we went! He wasn't due until next week Fri but I am so thrilled he's finally here!
Maverick was born yesterday 10/5 at 9:29pm. He weighed 7lbs 2oz and he's 20.25 inches long. He looks very much like his big brother. Our family is complete. We are so in love.
Owen was born this morning at 8:37. He weighs 9 lbs 6.6 oz and is 21 1/4 inches long. We are both doing great and I am so in love! Seeing Maddox as a big brother is so amazing!!
Meet Cameron James born Oct 1 at 11:21am. 7lb 3oz, 20.5 inches long. I had a September 28th due date and this little guy decided October is a better month!
