Just after her first bath, about 12 hours after she was born.
Wrapped up tight
All dressed up in all-in-one, jeans, jumper, gloves (really socks) and hat, ready to go home.
The birth
All natural, this time, which was a much better experience than Byron's induction. Pain control was just showers and baths this time, and the whole labor took about 4-5 hours. (It's hard to judge what "the beginning" is, as it's officially "when contractions get painful", and they go from uncomfortable to painful over time...).
She was born at 9:36pm, and they let us go home after 2 nights in hospital. Everyone is well, and being looked after by Jasmine's daddy. Big Brother Byron was a little bit jealous, but lucky for him, she sleeps quietly all day long (so far) so there is plenty of time for him, too.
Welcome home, little girl!

Ah so cute. Congratulations again! Glad to hear the birth was a lot nicer than last time. 4-5hrs sounds much better. I look forward to seeing her change and grow in person...as opposed to just hearing about Byron and seeing his first year through photos.
