SHE'S HERE

Lilly Rae Hoyos is here!! We are so glad that our little girl is here. She was born on July 13th at 5:24 am after a very easy labor and delivery. My contractions started around 11:00 pm on Saturday and by 1:00 am we were off to the hospital. My contractions were pretty strong and only 2 mins apart but I was managing them just fine and actually wanted to stay home a little longer but Jorge thought it would be best if we went in so we did. When we got there I was only dilated to 2. I got my epidural around 4:00 am and was still only at 2 and 1/2. Around 4:30 we decided to get some sleep. I was still feeling the contractions some but was able to rest for a little. At about 5:10 am i started to feel lots of pressure so I woke up Jorge and told him to call the Nurse. She came in and checked me and I was already 10cm dilated , so she called the doctor and at 5:24 after 3 pushes Lilly was here! I have been feeling great. We Had to stay in the hospital until Tuesday night because Lilly was having trouble keeping her temperature up. She is doing great now.
Here are her stats:
6lbs 1.1oz
19 in long
head- 12 1/4in

So glad to hear she's here! I got on this morning thinking I should check and ask when she was due, I thought it would be soon.
She's adorable and April looks like she's enjoying her too!
love, Jen
