I don't have too much time to update, but baby came out vaginally with a pretty short amount of time pushing (less thank 30 min). When she was born she was moving her legs and arms and was looking really good. I got to spend sometime with her while they cleaned her up and heard her first little cry ! Yup that's right, Baby Emma cried with a great little set of lungs. She still needed a tube to help her breath but she was doing great. I got to touch her little hand and she opened her eyes to look at me. My heart melted and I am so smitten with that little girl.
Bianca is holding strong and is still being worked on as there were still two placentas coming and lots of blood to deal with. I will update a bit later on with how everyone is doing!
For a quick explanation of our babies names:
We had always wanted to use Emma but never knew that Eva was a girl until she was born. So Eva came out right there and then. Emma has always been a special name to us for lots of different reasons, but as today progressed we thought hard on her middle name. So from Stephanie's suggestion (yes that Stephanie our wonderful nurse - sorry Karly we love you too but it was your day off) we decided to give her a middle name that starts with a B.
Hence Baby A = Eva Aimee
And Baby B = Emma Brielle
Brielle is a French name which in Hebrew means "of God" or in French "God is my strength". They are our precious little angles and we love them both so much.
I will update again soon ...
Beautiful name, very fitting for your precious daughter!
