The labor was long and hard, 7 am Friday morning untill 4:44 PM April 16!
Maya Kathrine Hernandez is 19 and 1/2 inches long, and weighed in at 8lbs, 7 ounces. Mephit had a rough delivery, but pushed her out in about 20 minutes during active labor's final segment. While she did have demerol and a epidural, the 48ml of Pitosin(sp?) really messed her up, and made the drugs barely usable. By the 36 hour mark, the Epidural had been moved twice with no effect. By the time they decided to redo the epidural completely, Maya was well on her way. Mephit ended up giving natural birth with no effective pain killers in her system.
Without further ado, enjoy the two pics posted, I'll host more over the next few days.
Thank you all for your kind words.
