Lilliana has arrived :)

Contractions started at 4 am yesterday and my water broke around 5 am. I was in labor for 14 hours with my little girl. Ended up getting the epidural at 8 cm which I must admit was HEAVEN after only being on 4 hours of sleep. I slept for 2 hours and woke up 10 cm. They had me wait half an hour to start pushing. I pushed four times and she was out! 7 lbs 0 oz and 20 and 3/4 inches long. Only needed 2 stitches :) good luck to the rest of you ladies and remember to keep an open birth plan because you never know how it will go!
