I know this is so late, but it's been a busy week. Last Thursday September 1, I was induced. They started the pitocin at 12:45pm and Brooke made her appearance at 9:54pm weighing 6 lbs 5 oz and 19 3/8" long. Thankfully the labor wasn't too long and only the last hour of it was the worst because I decided to do a natural birth without pain meds, but it was all worth it! She is absolutely precious and we are loving the time with her so much! Today she is already a week old and has gained back a lot of the weight she lost after birth, so that is really good. She resembles her daddy mostly, but we think we see a little of me in her :)
She has Paul's face and head shape, eyes, and cheeks. She has my fingers and toes and possibly my body type, but it's hard to tell at this point. She might have my nose, but that's also hard to tell until she gets older. We're unsure about her mouth and chin; although, she doesn't have the chin dimple ("butt chin") that I have. I love being a mom so much already and I'm really looking forward to the next 11 weeks I have with her.
