Baby Mae

There is actually a very funny story regarding if I was technically in the room with baby Mae was born at 12:37 pm on February 12. I will leave that for later, though no woman I know IRL is going to let me forget it for now.

Mistress had a pitch perfect labor and delivery. The nurse staff was ecstatic at such an easy process. She dilated perfectly and in fact did not even know Mae had started to come out until a nurse was doing a visual and saw her head. A mad rush ensued to get a doctor in the room and two pushes later, 20 inch, 7 lb, 12 ounce girl started crying for her mommy.

Mother did not have a single tear or cut or issue. Mae came out perfectly with zero signs of medical issues. She passed all the tests perfectly, peed and had a BM within the first five minutes. She latched quickly and is well fed.

Of course more pictures to follow over the coming days.

When babies sleep with their arms out like that it means they feel safe in their little psyche's. That will serve her well in life!
