She is here!!!

FIRST TIME MOMMY HERE!  Raychelle made her way into this world this morning at 8:06am weighing in at 6 lbs 4 ounces and 19.5 inches long.  Went into labor Sunday night, had her Tuesday morning.  All back labor and I got sent home from the hospital twice being told I was having "false labor" since I wasn't dilating (Even though my contractions were less than 2 minutes apart, I was only dilated 1cm).  Third time I went in, I was dilated to 5cm... Then 30 minutes later, I was admitted, brought to my room, and checked again and I was 9.5cm!!!  They gave me the epidural and after pitosin (my contractions slowed from the epidural) Raychelle arrived within 15 minutes of beginning pushing.  She was crowning, and then I pushed one last time and she popped out!  It was CRAZY! I'm so blessed.
