N16's surrogate baby is on the way!

Thank goodness mommy and daddy arrived last night! We went for some Mexican for lunch, then about 30 minutes later my water sprang a slow leak. We went to the midwives office soon after and had it confirmed. Been leaking a ton of fluid for about 5 hours now, but we're waiting things out at home.

Cramps have just started to set in. I am hoping to get a few hours of sleep tonight before contractions really start. Otherwise we'll head back to the midwives at 10 tomorrow morning (if we haven't already gone to the hospital), and go from there! Parents are getting excited!

Contractions finally started a few hours ago. They're getting intense but still only 7+ minutes apart. So I am letting everyone else sleep for a few more hours while I hang out with my dog. Baby is also up wiggling like crazy!

Baby girl arrived yesterday evening via VBAC! It was a crazy couple of days and I apologize for the lack of updates. She was 6lbs 13oz, 20", and her mommy and daddy are head over heels in love. We were all discharged after 14 hours and have settled in at home (parents and baby at their temporary home).

Will post a birth story and pics sometime soon!

[tjanca22]
