11 September 2007 ` Back online and now a mother

**Delicate_Dove** · September 15th, 2007, 10:45 PM

Well , I had a baby girl- she Was 36 weeks and 2 days.
3.2 kg's and 52 cm's

I woke up monday morning and thought what a bad night I had, then my mucus plug appeared and then my waters broke.....

I had a long labor and finally had her with the help of oxytocin at 3pm tuesday.
She was posterior and some how wedged, it was a close call for a ceser, but one last push and some vacuuming got her out at what ever cost.

She is of course adorable... a little jaundiced but we are home and trying to manage with mother and law who arrived from India 4 hours before the birth which was just in time.
