On Time Arrival – November 28th

Madeline was born right on time! Vicky’s due date was November 28th, and Madeline was born November 28th at 1:38 pm. She was 8 pounds 14 ounces and was 20½ inches long.
We were both surprised that Vicky went into labor so fast! She didn't have any contractions during the day, but at 1:45 am she woke Matt up and they began timing the contractions. Within 45 minutes, they were 5 minutes apart. By the time we got to the hospital, they were 2 minutes apart. After a few hours of monitoring, Madeline wasn't moving down, so it was decided that Vicky would have a c-section. Both mom and baby did well and we remained in the hospital for an additional 3 days.
