Please pray for us this morning as we go in to deliver our little girl! The delivery is scheduled for 7:30am. Should be leaving any minute...waiting for dh to get out of the shower !!
UPDATED 5/11:
I'm thrilled to announce the arrival of Kelly Teresa Smith! Sweet Kelly was born at 8:05 on Wednesday, May 6th. She was 6lbs 11oz. The delivery was fairly uncomplicated and Kelly is perfect! We just came home yesterday to a houseful of excited brothers and sisters.
We're having a hard time nursing. She seemed to be latching on well at the hospital and was even gaining back some weight, but once we got home my n*pples took a turn for the worse--very cracked and started to bleed. So painful. DH had to go buy some bottles and formula and the few breaks have helped me heal some, but nursing is still pretty painful. Any recommendations?
Thank you all so much for your prayers!!

Molly's mom just called. All is well. Healthy and pink. I don't want to shout the details--well, I do,but, I won't--so I'll let Molly do that later.
