WELCOME MADELYN JOY MORITZ





Madelyn Joy finally made her appearance at 7:17 am on August 25th 2007. After about 7 hours of good strong contractions Madelyn still had not made it far enough down to fully dialate the cervix. The Doctor put Sarah on Potocin in hopes that it would strenghten her contractions and move the baby down. Unfortunatly it did not. Sarah was having extremely strong contractions for about 3 hours with no improvement. At that point the doctor recomended we go in for a C-section as her labor had pretty much come to a stand still. Sarah could have continued to wait, but it would have only put undue stress on the baby. After a little discussion we decided it was time to have our baby.

The C-section went very well, with no complications. Both Sarah and Madelyn are doing great. A little tired but not to bad overall. Madelyn weighed in at 7lbs even, and 20" long. She has light brown and blond curly hair. We will see how long that lasts. She is beautiful. Here are some pictures to wet your whistle.
