Sistas!
Never went into labor, so the next day, we finally went to the hospital, hoping they could do something to put me into labor so I could have a shot at my VBAC and not have to get another C-section.
Here we go...
My midwife was nice enough to give me a tad bit of pitocin to see if it'd get my contractions going more regularly and... it did!! Wahoo... this just means stronger contractions than natural labor and therefore a more painful natural labor... :(
4.5 hours later at 10:41pm... out she came!
Lacie Kate Critchfield
7 lbs. 15 oz.
20 1/2 in.
Perfect
I will NEVER give natural birth again. I'm so glad I got my VBAC, but WOW, I never knew natural labor could be such excruciating pain. Feeling your hips spread apart is NO FUN!
For our Celebration lunch, they brought us steak & lobster, chicken & shrimp, asparagus, potatoes, caesar salad, and cheesecake!
Mama Bert took good care of the girls while we were in the hospital.
Nana got them the cutest "Big Sister" shirts!
Allie was IN LOVE! She kept asking how the doctor got baby Lacie out and about the umbilical cord... so inquisitive... constant questions!
Kailee lifted up my shirt a little to see if the baby really was out of my tummy lol. She was a little quiet at first, but warmed right up to her new sissy!
My midwife, Jeanean... fabulous!
Great Grandma once again!
Awe!
Taylor, Connie, & Haley... (choir kids) Love this fam!
Jared got me a BEAUTIFUL pink ring as my "push present" for pushin this baby out... genious idea! So, I got him one too for being my biggest support! He got the BYU outfit he's wearing :)
Gift bags for the girls from the Jordan fam!
Adorable :)
My new favorite picture!
First family picture with Lacie! Three sweet little girls! I am IN LOVE!
Love the quilt Granny made for her :)
Mommy's little angel!
Daddy's little buttercup!
1st time in the car seat!
I did not want to leave... I love the hospital... it's like vacation... they took such great care of me... I only got to stay 36 hours... I liked the 48 hour rule when I had Kailee better :)
Allie sure knows how to say cheese!
Some of our best buds... the Kenealey family!
