It's a....


GIRL!!!! Our baby girl was born last night at 4:33pm. She weighed 7 pounds, 12 ounces and was 21.25 inches long.
She was born via C section after nineteen hours of contractions and an hour and a half of pushing. She's nowhere near as large as they thought she would be, and we're still not sure why she didn't want to make her appearance in the traditional manner. Either way, she's here and she's healthy and she's been an angel so far.
She's eating well and sleeping in three or four hour blocks of time.
I'm feeling decent too. I'm extremely sore across my incision, and in my ribs from the manipulations that were required to get her unstuck from my pelvis after they decided to deliver her via c-section.
