Jenn's Baby

So, Jennifer went into labor again last night (this time it's real). It's been four false alarms but now this seems to be it. They went to the hospital at 6:30pm and her labor had started a bit before that. It's now 6pm the next day and they've decided to give her a c-section. After 24 hours she was still only 6 centimeters dilated, and that was after the balloon-thing that they put up her vag to help with the dilation. They also had to break her water. Damn that kid really does not want to come out. We think it's because she knows it's cold out.

Jenn's really upset about that because she wanted a vaginal birth, but oh well. The important thing is getting Brianna out safely. Einstein hospital only allows 2 people in the delivery room, so it's Dolly and Mike (the dad) and Dolly was really emotional  when I talked to her. I hope she's not making it harder for J!

I'll be doing blog-updates throughout the night so I guess we'll see how it goes!

**UPDATE**

I have a niece! Finally! Brianna Naomi Curcio, 7:14pm, Feb 23, 2010. 7lb 12oz, 19 inches! Mazel Tov Jennifer and Michael!
