Our little Allie decided she did not want to wait until her planned c-section April 28th to meet us! On Saturday night I started having what I thought were Braxton Hicks contractions, but as we sped off to the hospital at 4pm the next day I started to think this was the real thing! By the time we arrived I was 6 centimeters and progressing fast, and Allison Elizabeth Sewall was born just a few hours later naturally at 7:55 pm! Although she was only 36 weeks and 5 days, she was born healthy at 6 lbs and 3 oz, 19 inches long. We are all recovering and doing well, just learning to adjust to life as a family of 4. Here are the first of many pictures to come!
