At 2:48am today we welcomed the newest member of our family... Baby L! Her delivery was much better than what I experienced with Big J. I credit my wonderful nurse Cheryl. After some medication complications that took a few hours to straighten out and a complete removal and replacing of the epidural, I finally found some relief and was able to relax enough to allow my body to progress in the labor process without the aid of any induction medication. An answer to prayer!
Baby L was born on December 27th which is the same day of birth as MM's great-grandma Jean (whom passed away a little more than a year ago). We had been hoping for her to be born on this day, as a sweet tribute to a special lady. Coincidentally, she was not delivered by my obgyn, but a doctor named Dr. Jeffries. Grandma Jean's maiden name was Jeffries.
A beautiful reminder that I shouldn't be anxious for anything, for God is in control.
