Giana Caroline Marciano has arrived!!!!!!!!!!

Well, last Saturday, our Baby Girl finally made her appearance! ;) Giana Caroline Marciano was born on Sat. August 15th at 2:56pm, weighing 6lbs, 11oz, 19 1/2 inches long. She is perfect in every way possible!!!!!!!!!
The labor with Giana was quite long though! We were induced on Friday morning with something called Cervadrol( i think), and it was quite slow movin! I started having contractions Fri. afternoon consistently, so they moved me back to labor and delivery, but then they slowed down. In the middle of the night I was in crazy pain with contractions, but still not dialated. My water broke around 3am, they gave me some pain medication, and I was a few cm. dialated at this point. By early morn, around 9am, I had my epidural and they were just waiting for the contractions to get closer.I pushed for about an hour before she came out. Unfortunately, I got a fever during the delivery, so for the duration of the hospital stay, she had to be kept in the nursery to be monitored and be given antibiotcs. But, she is healthy, healthy, and doing great!! And Monday night around 10pm, we FINALLY were able to come home!!!!!! Giana is my perfect little angel and I love every second of being with her!!!!! Mike and I are so, so excited our little girl has arrived and we have her home!! A big thank you goes out to my parents, who have been with us this past week! I truly do not know how I would have done it with out them!!!! They have helped out with everything and are lifesavers!!!!! And of course fabulous Grandparents to this first little grandbaby!!! Of course, I want to show some pics of her off!!!! The next posting will be pics, pics of our little Giana!!
