We thought things were well on the way Wednesday at 3:00 a.m. to have our baby, then we hit a road block. My contractions weren't strong enough to keep dilating so I got stuck at 4 cm. The on call doctor decided that she wasn't going to help out by giving me pitocin or breaking my water, so I labored ALL day, still 4 cm at 2:00p.m on Wednesday. Finally, we decided to ask for a second opinion. The high risk team at Winnie Palmer came in at 8:00p.m. to discuss options. They decided the best thing to do was an 
Amniocentesis to determine Aubrey's lung maturity and go from there.
Amniocentesis to determine Aubrey's lung maturity and go from there. We waited all night for the results to come back. Thursday morning at 7:30a.m. the high risk team came back, gave us all the data, the test came back that her lungs were mature and we were going to deliver!! The nurse came in and started pitocin at 8:30 a.m, I was 5 cm. My doctor came in a broke my water at 12:00 p.m., I was still 5 cm. At 12:55 p.m., still 5 cm. But 10 minutes later at 1:05 p.m. she was crowning!!
I delivered at 1:12 p.m. She is 5 pounds 2 ounces, 19 inches long, with dark brown hair!!! After quite an ordeal we have a beautiful baby girl. We can't wait to get home so everyone can enjoy her. The kids adore her. Jayden is a proud big brother, Ainsley is elated, Logan is sweet and gentle, Carson is very curious. We are going to be busy!! Thank you all for your prayers through our pregnancy. We will try to keep updating with pictures and use this site as a blog for our entire family now!
