Well, she finally came! We got to the hospital this morning at about 7:30 and within an hour or so they started the medication to induce labour. By around 10:30 Lisa was starting to experience some strong contractions. The contractions kept getting stronger. She had a shot of Morphine to help with the pain. At around 12:30 she was crying because of the pain, so the midwife had her start pushing. At 12:46 Christine was born! She was 8 lb 11 oz and was 22.75″ long.

I’ve put up a gallery of pictures of her first few hours. You can view them in the 20071004 Christine’s Day 1 gallery.
