Flashbacks

Hi everyone!  Mom here...  We are doing great (and I am not just saying that)!  Lilly is an amazing baby.  She is eating great and sleeping pretty well.  We have had a couple of meltdowns and Paul says she hisses like a cat when she is really mad but so far so good.  Here are some highlights of the day she was born before I forget.  These are all coming to me thru flashbacks.  It's amazing what your body and mind can forget after you have a baby...

~Went into labor on Saturday, May 8 @ 11 am
~Got to the hospital at 5 that evening
~Opted for the epidural at 7 the next morning (yes, that was 20 hours of natural labor)
~Finally dilated to a 10 at 2 pm
~Pushed from 2-6 pm
~C-Section at 6:15 pm
~Lilly arrived @ 6:35 pm

I finally had to have a c-section because her head would not come down due to the fact that her shoulder was getting stuck on my pelvic bone.  Paul says he married me for my birthing hips but apparantly I don't have those :)  I am working on downloading pictures so stay tuned!
