After 15 hours of labor, the doctors deemed that I would be unable to deliver Nolan naturally and had to be wheeled in for an emergency c-section. I had a fever and he was not liking the contractions. On June 11th we welcomed him to the world at 10:08pm. He weighed a whopping 8 lbs 4 oz and measured 21 inches long. Check out the delivery photos below.
