We had the baby on Wednesday! Surprise surprise everybody she came early:)
We went into labor early Tuesday night at home, and stayed home through the night to see if it would stop or not… well it became very clear around 1am this was truly labor because the contractions started to get closer together. Around 4am our doula, Hannah, ( our labor support person) came over because I didn’t feel like I could handle the contractions anymore, and we stayed home through most of the morning just getting through labor. It wasn’t painful, and Jeff and Hannah really did so much for Bethany that helped her through it all. We went to the hospital around 8am and got registered and into our room. It took quite awhile for that little kid to come out, so we labored for most of the day. She wasn’t born until 5:30pm (we all were sooo exhausted!) She was a healthy little peanut, 5lb 8oz , and 19 1/4 inches long. YAY!!!!
We named her Moravia Shiloh Mootz.
She is so beautiful. Love all the pictures. Bethany, you look fantastic. Can’t even tell you just had a baby. CONGRATULATIONS MOMMY AND DADDY!!!! <3 you guys…….
