    I thought this day would never come, but it did! :D

    My water broke spontaneously 5:00 Wednesday morning (due date + 1) and I went into labor right away. Suzanna was born at 12:45 that afternoon, weighing 7 lbs. 12 oz. and 20.5 inches long. Lincoln took his time but when he heard the doctor mutter "forceps" he came shooting out (with three hard pushes) at 2:10, weighing 6 lbs. 15 oz. and 20 inches long.

    They both outsized their same-gender older siblings' birth sizes, and it was the longest I've ever been pregnant. :blink: B)

    We are so happy to have them here! We came home Thursday evening and are all doing great. I am so glad I was able to have a natural delivery with them. My doctor and doula were awesome!

    One of these days I'll get pictures posted.
