DS asked me to sleep with him tonight "only if I want to", so I am sharing his bed tonight. He has been in a lovey mood lately, wanting to cuddle more. I figure I don't have much more time of this so I am going to soak it up while I can.

I hope it is really happening, girlonabike! Baby doesn't want you to be induced, it seems?!

Yay girlonabike, I hope you are getting baby snuggles! DH and I went out to dinner last night. Brazilian steakhouse. I ate a lot.

No word from girlonabike? I hope that means she's had the baby and they are cuddled up!

We had another play date with the friend from last week. The boys wrestled for a good hour. Isaac is exhausted. 🤣

No, H. I don't want/needed your help getting the 2 year old to bed. Please, let her continue sitting on your lap while you play a game on the phone instead of telling her it is time to go to bed. Don't worry, I will shoulder the entire ducking tantrum.

I went through baby stuff tonight. I found one newborn sleeper. I must have freaked the freak out and gave away all my newborn sleepers/swaddles/sleep sacks/sleep gowns.

Hi!
She's here! Like her brother, she decided to go into labor on her own the day before induction. I was feeling pretty regular contractions all afternoon, and then right around midnight they started intensifying, fast. Called the midwife, she said to go ahead and come in since I was supposed to be there in a few hours anyway. The drive to the hospital was painful, and I was definitely in active labor when I got to triage. Still hadn't dilated over 5cm, but they admitted me. Took an eternity for the magic man to arrive (epidural), but once he did he was not fooling around. I said goodbye to my legs and settled in for the night. By 6am I was fully dilated, but baby was having a problem moving down enough. Some re-positioning, and by 8:30 am I was ready to push. 5 pushes later at 9:01am she was here. Didn't feel a thing. 8lbs, 10oz and 21 inches. 42 weeks on the dot. She's super alert and super chill.
We're still working on feeding, but other than that she's an angel. Kiddo did stop by to meet his sister. I might as well have named her Vegetable for all he wanted to do with her! Oh well, we'll work on it. Assuming all tests go well tomorrow morning, we'll both be outta here by the afternoon.
I'd post a pic, but I don't know how yet.

Congratulations on your baby girl girlonabike! I'm glad things went smoothly and that she was able to arrive on her own terms.
