Thanks for all of your suggestions. Gave me a chuckle.

I have had labour contractions start about 20 minutes apart on Sunday evening. Today they are about 10 minutes apart. My doctor suggests waiting until they are 3-5 minutes so I don't spend too much time in the hospital. It is much nicer being at home. The contractions are painful but knowing that they are bringing us closer to meeting our Baby makes it all worth it.

Hopefully have some updates for you soon!

Hi Sher

Hope you have delivered safely by now! Early labour can take a while, but you were doing the right thing by staying at home. Once we went to the hospital my contractions slowed down! Wishing you all the best for labour and birth and looking forward to seeing your news once you are ready to post.
Love Kim

Siena Marie Ward arrived January 31 @ 2:32 a.m. She was 6 lbs. 14 oz. and 19 inches long.

She is just beautiful. Sorry I did not post sooner, but she had a little bit longer stay in the hospital due to some jaundice. They wanted to watch her a little closer since it seemed to be rising pretty quickly. She was treated in the baby ICU unit and was out of there in 18 hours. Siena recovered well and is doing great.

She is healthy and eating well. We are so glad she has come into our lives and love showing her off (in pictures) to everyone. My labour was long, but delivery lasted about 25 minutes. It was really amazing.

I wish you girls the best with your labor and delivery and hope for it to be smooth as it was for me. I will be in touch soon. Siena is hungry. . .again :D
