Paij was induced Thursday night. Paij had a c-section with Morgan due to failure to progress in her labor. It was important for Paij to try to not have a c-section this time around. Almost one week after her due date(the 18th) she was induced. She was started on pitocin at about 10:30 on Thursday night. She labored through the night as they gradually increased the dosage of the pitocin. Paij failed to progress for the first 12 hours of her labor. It was discouraging and looking more like we were headed for another c-section. Then all of a sudden something changed. Paij jumped to 6cm in dilation, and within 45 minutes was to a 10. Paij pushed for an hour and our little beauty was here.
I am so proud of Paij for the courage she showed in choosing to deliver VBAC and the strength she showed throughout the labor and delivery. My gratitude for her and the charity she has shown towards this new life through the entire pregnancy has made me admire her all the more.Paij is recovering well and we could not ask for a more beautiful and healthy daughter. We are filled with gratitude. We are excited to share pictures of our newest little princess with our friends and family. We hope you enjoy them as we are not able to be with each of you during this special time.
We couldn't let Jaycee get all of the attention. Morgan has been great with Jaycee and is adjusting to being a big sister much better than we had expected. It is sweet to see a bond forming between them already.
