Sarah ? Risto
Born on March 5th at 11:40 am
5 pounds 1 oz 17" long
She is a small thing and has had a hard time keeping her body temp up. We have to stay another night to make sure she is stable before we can go home. The doctor says this is pretty common with small babies. She was only a week early, but for some reason she wasn't growing well in the womb, so it was good that I was induced a few days early. The kids are a little disappointed that we can't bring her home today, but it's important that she can keep her body temp stable. I'm feeling good. Labor was short and sweet even though I was induced. They started me on pit about 9 am and she was born about 3 hours later. I went from a 5 cm to a 10 in a matter of a few minutes and wasn't able to get an epidural, so the last few minutes of labor were pretty intense. We are now hoping we can go home tomorrow morning.
We haven't thought of a middle name yet, still trying a few names out.

I can't believe she was so tiny! Cute little lady though. I'm sorry you couldn't get an epidural, but at least she was small and your 4th!
