Delilah Rose was born on February 28th at 8:48pm weighing 7lbs 4oz. Original due date was March 4th. After all that, she looks just like her father! At least she got his tan skin and not my pasty white. We fall more and love each second with her.

Lilith Grace was born this afternoon 3/9/15 at 12:16pm via successful VBAC. She measured 9lbs 1oz, 21 1/4 inches. Will add a link to her birth story in the coming days.
William James arrived on 2/27 via emergency induction for pre-eclampsia at 36w2d. It was a scary L&D for Mommy due to very elevated BP, but Will handled it beautifully. He arrived at 12:52am and was a tiny but feisty 4 pounds 8 ounces, 18 inches at birth. He came home with us after 2 days and we are adjusting well.

Isabella Grace came on March 14 at 1:30 pm. I was scheduled for a RCS March 24, but I went into labor naturally the night before. So after a night of "monitoring me" the dr decided she wanted to go ahead and do my Csection early. I can't figure out how to post pics, but I'm pretty sure I posted pics on fb. My brain is kinda mushy even 2 weeks later, so I give everyone credit for being able to keep up with PB and FB.

Ruby-Jane Elise arrived at 8:48 pm on 3/30 after 14 hours of med-free labor. She weighed 7 lbs 10 oz and was 20 inches long. Hopefully I can get her birth story up soon, it was incredible!
I won't be posting pics or an individual birth story but I wanted to share a few bits about our experience with everyone.
I woke up when my water broke around 12:30am on 3/19. Contractions started about a half hour later. I timed them for an hour and they were consistently 2.5 minutes apart. We made the decision to head to the hospital and arrived around 2:30am. The midwife on duty checked my cervix and I was already at 8cm. I had wanted to try for a med-free birth and at that point it was probably too late to do much, even if I had wanted an epidural.
In the end I pushed for maybe 15-20 minutes and Lucas was born at 4:33am. 8lbs 6oz, 21inches. All told the experience was about 4 hours which blew my mind (FTM, here). I feel like I got extremely lucky with my birth experience. The worst part by far was the stitches afterwards, that alone took more time than the pushing and I think I'm having some complications and may need them re-done at some point. The nurse I spoke to at the OB's office didn't seem to give a shit about my concerns so I'll speak to my OB when I go in for my postpartum appointment in a couple weeks.
LO is happy and other than losing too much weight due to low milk supply, he is very healthy. Luckily most of the weight loss was due to dehydration and he was close to his discharge weight at our next weight check. We're continuing to supplement for now.
I'd just like to say to everyone that I'm very glad I found this community. In the end I feel like I was as prepared as I could have been and I owe so much of that to the ladies around here. Thank you all for sharing your experiences and advice over the past 9 months. I look forward to learning even more as the journey continues.
I have delayed and delayed because I couldn't figure out how to post a photo of my little beauty, but I just want to get the announcement out there. My sweet Violet Irene was born on Friday, March 13th at 8:21 pm. 8lbs 10 oz, 21.25 in long. After almost 24 hours of killer back labor, she was born via unplanned c-section after she couldn't descend. That was hard, and the first days were hard, but she was perfection from the beginning and she fills my life with joy every day now. I can't believe such an amazing creature is mine.
