Well, after my desperate post Saturday afternoon, my water broke just
after 11pm that night. Rich and I got the hospital at about midnight
and I was admitted.
They put me in a room to see what we would do...which wasn't much..so
poticin drip it was. They bumped me from 2 to 4 to 6 to 8 OUCH! Finally
contractions...but it was the never-ending contraction! My LD nurse
called for my epidural and aaaahhhhhh!!! Then we were on our way.
Lilli had some problems with her blood pressure so they put the scalp
monitor on her and decided to pump some fluids into my uterus because
they thought she was tangled in the cord.  After I dilated and we got
to push..She came quickly...and right on her due date...how prompt of
her LOL...
After an hour of pushing, Lillian Grace XiaoYu Hall was born at 3:08
PM. 7 lbs. and 4 oz and 20 1/2 inches long

She had a knot in her cord and it was around her neck...but is
perfectly fine! God is good! I said all along that He put her in there
and He would take care of her...and He did!!

After Lilli got out..It really got interesting. I had begun to
hemorrhage and they discovered a fibroid tumor that was growing at the
same time Lilli was. My uterus wouldn't close and I bled for about 4
hours. Poor Rich...I know it took years off his life!! The tumor was
holding the uterus open.  After several scary hours, I finally got
stable and in a regular room. I had 2 pints of blood..thanks all who
donate!! Two people are my heroes!!

All is well now, I am very tired and sore...but very happy to be home
with all my girls and Rich!

I will try and post some pictures tomorrow...but if you can't wait go
here!
