Emma Grace - A Birth Story {Alaina Nunez - Birth Photographer}

I'm so incredibly honored that I was invited to capture my niece's (or maybe nephew's, it wasn't confirmed during the ultrasounds) birth! Nancy went into labor sometime between 2 and 3 in the morning of May 24th and I received text messages that I woke up to at 6:20am from David saying it was the real deal. This was 1 week before Nancy's due date so I was expecting to get the call. I got to the hospital just after 7am and Nancy was doing really well. We were talking and laughing so of course I had to capture her laughing during labor.

 Entertaining themselves while we waited... haha

 David figured he'd get a quick nap before push time since they were up most of the night. 

 The Doctor came in and checked Nancy around 11:25 and broke her water at that time. She said that Nancy was 8, almost 9cm dialated at that time. The nurse who was attending was surprised that Nancy was that close because the contractions didn't seem that close together (at least on the monitor). 

 David calling the nurse... Nancy was ready to push.

 2 pushes and little Miss made her appearance at 12:06pm!

Happy Daddy!

 Nancy seeing her baby girl for the first time.

 

Precious baby Girl!

 She came out hungry and she let her mama know it! "Mama you haven't had breakfast yet, I'm hungry!"

 2 pounds and 2 ounces less than her biggest brother!

So tiny, so beautiful, so perfect... Such a blessing and perfect gift from our Heavenly Father!

Next up, Emma's newborn session...

Blessings,
Alaina
