Happy Birthday Brynley!
I wanted to say thank you to all the sweet comments and prayers that we received and to introduce you to the newest member of the family: Brynley Alison Gelinas
We checked in at 7am this morning, ready to start Pitocin to get induced, but God had other plans, knowing my fears about starting Pitocin. My midwife came in to break my water and I actually started progressing on my own with NO Pitocin so it went smoothly and before we knew it, I was advancing to almost 8 cm on my own before I had my epidural. We are all resting happily and getting to know one another and I am smitten with my sweet blonde headed angel!
I think the same goes without saying for Scot and he is one proud Daddy!
Introducing Ryder to Brynley went great and he loves her already. When she started to cry he whispered over to her "It's okay, don't cry" and my heart literally melted! Our family is now complete and I couldn't be happier. Now I just need to get this breastfeeding thing down and so far she is latching on okay and we are just trying to get the hand of everything. I feel so blessed to have my sweet girl to add to our family!
