Our
lovely daughter Ishana was born on January 11 at 9.44 am. I was 39 weeks on that day.
She weighed 6 lbs 12 ounces and is doing fine. The labor itself was quite
exhaustive and lasted for 24 hrs. My water broke on January 10th early morning
and contractions began a few hours later and it ended up being a very long
labor. Ultimately everything went well and it was a natural birth.
Last few days have been hectic with day and night time feedings.
We are learning new things everyday and its indeed a blessing to have her with
us!!

What a beautiful name for a beautiful girl! I haven't heard the name Ishana before...how did you choose it? I was expecting my daughter to be more on par with yours size-wise...not sure how she chunked up to be 8lb (although, to be fair, she was born at 40 weeks + 1 day)! Way to go, Mom, on a natural delivery! Enjoy all the cuddles (I have no doubt that you are!).
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! My husband chose this name and I simply loved it from the time I heard it. All through the pregnancy I had people tell I was going to have an 8 pounder....my belly was huge...but it was mostly water than the baby itself. Would love to hear your birth story... am still working on writing up mine.
DeleteLove the name! Congrats!!!
