My sister, Mindy, was due with her 4th child any day now. Yesterday at the weekly appointment, the doctor stripped her membranes and sent her home. This morning about 9:30 (her time) she called my mom and said she was headed to the hospital at about 10:00 because her contractions were about 5 minutes apart. By the time she got kids settled at her friend's house and got to the hospital at 10:10, her water broke in the car at the stop light in front of the hospital.
Her husband, Jason, hurried and let her out, got a nurse to help, and then ran to park the car. By the time he got to her room, she was pushing and 20 minutes later, at 10:30 a.m., her beautiful baby girl was born. (As soon as I can I'll post a picture.) There was no time for an epidural or anything. She had this baby au'natural!!! My sister is a rock star!
Baby girl weighed 7 lbs. 12 oz. and 21" long. Pretty sure her name will be Mylie (middle name to be determined). I'm so bummed that I have to wait until July to meet her. That makes 14 grandkids for my parents and I am now an aunt times 12.
