Went for a four mile run on labor day around 7pm. Nothing special. Felt good, nice temps.
But it got even better. Carrie woke me up at 1:30am Tues September 4, with her water having broken and she quickly progressed to full on labor. At 5:11am 7lb 12oz. George Christian made was welcomed, and his little 5lb 5oz. sister Abigail Bess followed shortly at 5:31am. Both babies were extremely alert and took to nursing quickly.
Carrie is a true champ. It was the most extreme event I’ve ever seen. With the help of our Doulas Karen and Erica and our fantastic midwife, Leeanna, Carrie met her goal of a natural delivery. Wow, it was amazing and such a feat. Check our family blog okjankowskis.blogspot.com for further details and pics to follow shortly.
